@theillfrisch: That's Pete Cosey, who was with Miles's band from 1973 through '75, when they disbanded due to Miles's health problems of the late '70s. Pete is still active on the Jazz scene and leads the band The Chlldren of Agratha. Named for one of Miles's albums, the band is a repertoirey band featuring the music of Miles's electric period.
Wow he really sounded like Hendrix with the wah wah pedal! Now I get it! Fantastic. That was amazing. He's not constrained by the usual urge to be melodic, hes playing notes and creating sounds sort of inbetween majors and flats. Wow. Thats blown me away. Thanks for posting.
Ummm...I mean...well what I'm trying to say is...am I going out on a limb here when I say that these guys do a relatively kickass job of setting the mood here?
I must say, though fasion has little to do with music in my honest opinion (not perception), this has got to be the snazziest dressing groups of cats that can play shit you dream up and can never express. This is the music I've been hearing in my head since childhood.
How the hell can Michael Henderson play the same thing over and over forever and yet make it sound new and fresh with every repetition? WOW... And Al Foster is layin' it down DEEP. This was one of the GREATEST rhythm sections ever.
Its so blatenly obvious, if i had to choose one man's music to listen to for rest of my life itd be Miles. It aint even close. Well, mabe Hendrix, but still.... Id have so many different types of music, all of which are being played at the highest level. Shit id even be able to listen to some hip hop!
but how do u know if he played well or bad ? u all just say what u think ur supposed to say but how would u all react if miles said "sorry i played bad tonight" ?
@realmadridvideos Miles' music wasn't about Miles. Paradoxically, it was all about Miles. It's not his playing (as great as it is) that people 1,000 years from now will remember--it's the music he was able to draw out of the musicians in his band to create a specific and sublime sound that people will be talking about.
BAD ASS!! Miles "bad ass" Davis ...in the throws of busting the walls of the Norm down to the ground... smoldering, crumbled, pulverized walls left piled-up in a heep. Thnx for the post, milesdewey!
Why are you hating on mongoose? I thought it was well established that he was rude to most people. In fact, a lot of people consider his being standoffish as an attractive attribute that contributed to his persona.
According to the biography, Miles never did acid. During this set he was in a lot of pain from surgerys following his car crash on NY Expressway. Pain meds.
Oh yeah, he really was. Total jerk. I mean, he'd turn his back on the audience for an entire piece. He cared so much about the music that he ignored the people who basically made him famous.
i think that's awesome that he cared about the music more than the fans who made him famous. That is all the musician should be concerned with especially when making improvised music. if it were pop music he would be an asshole but it's not
Why is turning your back on the audience automatically bad? The old "everybody solos but nobody solos" setup could just mean he was trying to get the audience to look at whoever was playing right then. Besides that he was directing all the other musicians with very subtle cues.
@HendrixPrinceFlea89 Miles fusion era and avant-garde are the best compositions ever! Kind of blue is a classic, but Electric and Bitches brew make me travel to out of this world!
How Miles could get away with this stuff....and make it good. It's like nothing is happening, and yet it is still deep. It's the conversation, man.
I'm steppin out a bit on this...but I always felt that from Bitches thru the 70's, Miles was doing his spin on what Coltrane was doing in the 60's towards the end. It's like Miles took it and put his "thing" on it. I dunno....
I see what your saying, both miles and coltrane really explored music. But I think they're both totally unique, just cant bring myself to compare them. Guess the best way to put it is that they both played what they felt, regardless of what others said. Have a nice day man.
Its really awesome because its a return to beautifully simple chord sequences that are made complex by their emotional, spiritual content.. which is something a lot of players forget about i feel
You know,we have a long tradition in jazz music here in Poland,so a lot of Amercian jazz musicians are really popular here too.You probably may be aware of the Jazz Jamboree festival in Warsaw which is on of the oldest events like this in Europe or another event called Warsaw summer jazz days.check out these names ((I'm sure you know some of them): Tomasz Stanko,Marcin Wasilewski, Krzysztof Popek, Krzysztof Komeda, Piotr Baron,Jaroslaw Smietana,Piotr Wojtasik,Leszek Mozdzer ;)
Concerts nowadays are places to be more seen than heard. It reflects the sad state of affairs today. The music business fault. The kids running the music biz today are really a sorry assed bunch of wankers who have not the least bit of sense of tradition. Their "innovative" and "edgy" stuff sucks also. Form your own record company like I did.
While I completely agree with you for them most part, there is still some underground stuff that is still amazing music and most of the bands thrive in the live setting. The jam scene, bands that took after the Dead and Phish. Some of the better ones know like Umphrey's McGee and moe. are unique and progressive bands and most all of them are self produced so they have not been tainted by the music business. And for more jazzy look up Medeski, Martin and Wood and Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey.
One of the last real contributors to imaginative jazz. Somehow nowadays we have loads of musicians who duck low to avoid getting shot at. Loads of dudes helping put jazz in a grave where classical music already resides. Are you one of them as well? It's time to PUT POP IN PLACE! Get that Jazz going!
I know it may be blasphemous to mention Led Zeppelin on a Miles Davis video, but parts of the first trumpet solo remind me of Jimmy Page's bow solos on "Dazed and Confused". Anybody agree?
Man, you listen to this and wonder what happened to modern jazz? Thank Kenny G for perverting hard jazz and fusion into a homogenized pile called fusak/smooth jazz! At least I got Miles' "Star People" on CD to remind me of what music can be!
Yep, mine too...to hear Stern and Scofield straight tear it up with their over the top distorted bebop lines is friggin' awesome! That and I dig saxophonist Bill Evans. The energy and playing on the album is still fresh sounding! "Man With the Horn" is fantastic also!
you are listening to the greatest composer of the 20th century. if anyone out there needs some Miles Davis fusion era music ask me ive got almost all his albums from that point in his career.
Thank You Miles... for the greatest band ever. The funkiest, the hardest rocking, the most abstract -- jazz rock funk and art-music all rolled into one primordial joint...
you're right - i couldn't put it any better. I wish i could get my friends to hear it too. Every time i put it on i get shouted at to get it off. Why can't they hear that this is the funkiest, heaviest most mysterious music ever made?
Its a wah pick-up in his mouthpiece. He has two pedals. he didnt play into a mic unless he was "off". There isnt a mic connected to his horn. He is amplified.
Hey this IS performance art...sit back and let them take you for the trip. Dance....move....get some of those shades like Miles and look at your bright futures....I am going to check out Part 2 o join me!
This must've been somewhere near when he branched off mainstream jazz to his own unique style...and unique it was! Loved his stuff from this later period of his life.
This is wonderful stuff. I was there for that show and I must tell you the the audience was not at all appreciative. There were objects thrown at the stage. It was a Bitche's Brew that night.
I heard the story of this gig was that he played a first set then went offstage to much booing thrown objects so the promoters had to beg him to get him back onstage. He then launched into this (Ife) and the crowd was with him for the rest of the night. Is this true?
Almost. During "Tune in 5" Miles and Mtume were doing abstract shit on the organ and drum machine. Crowd got annoyed booed him, set ends, and the next set is this. All on the Montreux box set
Like that? Check out "On The Corner", especially the "On The Corner:Complete Sessions 6 CD Set" He invented acid jazz, and so many of the "alternative funk soul trip hop" genres that were to follow, with that album. Miles in the 7-'s, my favorite period...As a true genious, at leat 20-25 years ahead of his time!
I always find 'Electric Miles' to be the most fascinating, not to mention, most creative period in his life. This man is the reason I learned to play the trumpet!

Tremendous talent. Miles ahead of his time. Wonderful rhythm section helped create the mood.

Saw him live on the pier in NYC in the 80's.

Pimp Daddy-O Miles, circa 25 years ahead of his time...FUCK DA HATERS! Miles in the 70's ruled!

Prety much that is about it. It was really nasty for a while. Hindsight proves him the victor though.

This is wonderful stuff. I was there for that show and I must tell you the the audience was not at all appreciative. There were objects thrown at the stage. It was a Bitche's Brew that night.

I heard the story of this gig was that he played a first set then went offstage to much booing thrown objects so the promoters had to beg him to get him back onstage. He then launched into this (Ife) and the crowd was with him for the rest of the night. Is this true?

Almost. During "Tune in 5" Miles and Mtume were doing abstract shit on the organ and drum machine. Crowd got annoyed booed him, set ends, and the next set is this. All on the Montreux box set

Like that? Check out "On The Corner", especially the "On The Corner:Complete Sessions 6 CD Set" He invented acid jazz, and so many of the "alternative funk soul trip hop" genres that were to follow, with that album. Miles in the 7-'s, my favorite period...As a true genious, at leat 20-25 years ahead of his time!

I always find 'Electric Miles' to be the most fascinating, not to mention, most creative period in his life. This man is the reason I learned to play the trumpet!
