Cookin' with the Miles Davis Quintet is a studio album by the Miles Davis Quintet which was released in July 1957 through Prestige Records. The recording sessions were at Rudy Van Gelder's studio in Hackensack, New Jersey, in 1956. As the musicians had to pay for the studio time, their recordings are practically live. Two sessions on May 11 and October 26, 1956, resulted in four albums — this one, Relaxin' with the Miles Davis Quintet, Steamin' with the Miles Davis Quintet and Workin' with the Miles Davis Quintet. It was the first of the four LPs to be released. In response to the album title, Davis said, "After all, that's what we did—came in and cooked." Reid Miles designed the album's cover and Phil Hays provided the illustration.
