Miles Davis ca. 1970

[louison79]

the full dvd does exist, under the name "Electric Factory". I only got the first 10mn. Quality is really better.

[jaquestotite]

been to spectrum 100x, and this is not it.

[ox092]

what a great performance miles at his best.

[flammaster]

I got to see Aierto in 1970 when I was 8 at the Concord Jazz Festival. He opened up for Buddy Rich. I was blown away at the stuff he was doing!

[JCaudy]

This is a zenith...Keith playing tandem melodic lines on two keyborads ...mmmmmmhmmmmm

[xenakis9]

Miles Davis during the "Live/Evil" period. Some of my favorite music ever.

[Merkaba4203]

Absolutely.

[STEVEFINNERTY]

THIS IS FUCKING HEAVY AS shit hot shit

[florafox]

@STEVEFINNERTY exactly ! i was searching for the right sentence .

[Leondale]

IO only wish I could get the rest of this vid......

[robertzim]

thank you for this video... miles is a genius

[XXXMI]

you sir are a buttscratcher...

[mullah06]

Did anyone see this tour in Portland at PSU in '71?

[jplew138]

The track is "Sivad" from Live-Evil...the second half where the tune slows down.

[middlebit]

Some of the titles on Live-Evil, including "Sivad", are "edits" of several tunes. "Sivad" includes snippets from a live "Directions", and two versions, studio and live, of "Honky Tonk". The band is playing "Honky Tonk" in this video.

[Merkaba4203]

*Honk Tonk then.

[voncoolio]

What's the track? It's so beautiful.

[Brock2097]

"Honky Tonk" I think.

[voncoolio]

malboro is right

[stratusfunk]

Airto on Percussion!!!!!!

[utubeissad]

This gig is from a club called "Just Jazz", not the Spectrum.

[mendali]

What's your source for this information?

[utubeissad]

An uncle who booked Just Jazz from 1969-1975. Miles played the Spectrum for the first time in 1972, not '71.

[utubeissad]

I stand corrected - this is from a club called "Electric Factory". My uncle also reminded me that Miles played the old Quaker City Jazz Festival in Philly at the Spectrum in '69 and '72.

[TheRealDerfMan]

Honky Tonk with the "Live-Evil" band....!!

Thx Mendali for posting this!!!!! =)

(What's with malboro1979's comment? He's trying to make his point by calling other people pricks...? Yeah, that'll work.)

[saxotone]

Miles, man! This is awesome!!!

[fusionfreq]

whats all this 'best' bull shit ...i need it all blue,smiles,brew, evil, live in paris all of it ...like all the colours of the rainbow.

[pjbrubak]

The Live Evil period is Miles' best electric period.

[hotlanta71]

awesome

[dpbUK]

This is awesome rare footage - such a good band and Miles is a motherf**ker!

[sk8away]

oooouucchhh ... the Cellar Door Sessions...

[makes69]

Five Stars it´s not enough!I want to give 10!

[sidhrtha]

did i die and go to funk heaven?

[Leondale]

Nice! I love what they're sayin!!

I freelance sometimes!

This is what it feels like!

[pantok07]

I DONT LIKE LATE MILES OR COLTRANE

[chivaxla]

go rot in a ditch. wtf does coltraine have to do w. anything?

[megabopp]

SCREW OFF!!

[MyCar18]

Even though I do not agree with you. I respect that you said that in the nicest way possible.

[pianobopp]

thanks at least you're civilized MyCar.

[pianobopp]

I should'nt have said it this way. Actually everyone has a right to listen to whatever they like,it's just that I was ticked off that they all spammed me and did'nt give me the same rights that they have to their own opinions

[tcbwalsh]

bitchin' - love electric Miles

[sineplive]

this is beyond music

[XXXMI]

this sounds like shit... hate this era of miles' music

[djat]

Well just stick yer head down that toilet bowl and suck it in deep mama

[coolbraz]

Where'd you find this video?

[mendali]

I used to be subscribed to a Miles Davis mailing list and this was posted, so I saved it several years ago.

[woodygould]

Any chance it's Dave Holland (can't see a face any place in this video) instead of Mike Henderson, and any chance that this is the Grammy show the year Miles got it for Bitches' Brew?

[fizm]

Mike Henderson. You can tell by his musical and physical playing style. More animated and more neck work than Holland.

[mikeh69]

ELECTRIC FACTORY PHILLY 90 MIN DVD

[evdl77]

if u like this, buy yourself the cellar door sessions... same band, same sound, just another occasion...

[DonnyOsmondJr]

Miles was like a time traveler always decades-centuries ahead of everyone else. Only now is the magnificence of his musical vision being appreciated. Yet when he was creating this shit there was great weeping and gnashing of teeth...thankfully it has been recorded for the Star People he created it for

[ricluvno304s]

Don't Do Drugs

[cali22boi]

I cant hear you over your Blue Notes!!

[ghettowalk]

The track is honky tonk. Similar to the cellar door tracks, except a bit quicker. Possibly recorded a month or two earlier, which would make it oct-nov 1970.

[LADYxGORE]

deep shit..what can be said..pass the heroin

[cali22boi]

Read a book sometime...

[brawlersgm]

looks like live at fillmore/live evil era. miles is a bad ass.

[liljjjj]

One of the G.O.A.T.

[funkydrumr]

'71 is a good call... that's the genius, Airto Moriera on percussion. Wish the Gary Bartz solo was here...

[dockaiser]

Yeah right , Gary Bartz plays the best solos ever in these days

[spamjavellin]

This must be from the Live-Evil sessions. I think it's Sivad, or maybe Funky Tonk...

[sergelapelle]

Sivad is an edit of Directions, Honky Tonk (studio), and Honky Tonk (live).

[ShowsOn]

I think this track is called Honky Tonk.

[Myleso]

Here's some footage of Miles Davis in 1970 at the Isle of Wight Festival.

[mendali]

This clip has been floating around for several years by itself ... I'm not sure if anyone has any other clips from this gig, but I'm sure I haven't seen any

[justin2535]

oh man I love this stuff! upload more!

[nowave1]

Hell yes -- this is the "Cellar Door" band, with Gary Bartz, Keith Jarrett, Michael Henderson, Jack DeJohnette, and Airto. Wish I could see hours of this!!

[Carlito1988]

Sounds like Keith Jarrett- this was the post-Herbie, Chick, Joe Z era.

[kofferfisch]

Old file, thanks!
