re-listening it right now.

It is an excellent work of art. I'm actually waiting for the SACD/Hybrid of his session "Things Are Getting Better" with Milt Jackson...looks like it should be here today or tomorrow.

Thanks, for the link by the way...I'll be digging through it with great interest!

Thank you for the link. A wonderful album. This gives me just another reason to go back to it.

miles adds so much to the adderly sound.

True.

I read somewhere that this was really a Miles album, but they put it out under Cannonball's name to help him fulfil a contractual agreement.

It's possible, Miles always warned musicians about falling prey to labels, but I would be wary of that claim for Somethin' Else. I am pretty sure that Cannonball never had a real contract with Blue Note, this was a one-shot deal between labels. And of course that's not to say that Miles isn't a key influence on the recording either.

Well, I wrote that and then I looked. I think he ultimately had two other albums on Blue Note (and recorded under a psuedonym for another). But the gist of what I was saying still stands. SE was recorded as a one-off for the label.
