Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (1/3)

[jackrazalas]

WTF this is music for nuts

[jackrazalas]

@ibanezgeorge so what was the trip like? I've never..

[ibanezgeorge]

I'm almost glad I forgot about this epic song last week when I tried LSD. I would have tripped way too hard.

[B0ggster]

3:30

[Batman8657]

Ber-derp ber-derp ber-derp ber-derp ber-derp........ REAAAUUUUUUURRRreeeaaauuurr(re­aaaauurrr...)

Jazz on Mars. Love this track.

[waveriders93]

This is wicked! Right on

[cryspyfast]

for some strange reason I fart rainbows everytime I listen to this shit.

[ianhendersonjazz]

Miles is HIP!!!

[viciousspew]

This album is intense enough stone sober. I don't think I could handle it on drugs. . .

[Murderocracy]

All my friends think I'm crazy for liking this music but I say hey whatever go listen to your Justin timberlake, am cool guyths

[Davo5673]

@Murderocracy justin timberlake is good...

[Murderocracy]

Hey guyths, I'm only thirteen years old and my favorite bands are Pink Floyd, Soft Machine and other now-obscure music from my generation who's ears are riddled with the likes of Beiber and co. Am I KEWL now becausee I like grown-folk music yet am only 13? thank you guyths

[xhardcoreyx]

@Murderocracy nope still not cool

[renumeratedfrog]

Once you surrender to the music, you can't stop yourself from loving it....

[getbuckist]

those notes are so dope.

[Jocker4567]

only here for my history of jazz class. this hogwash is killing my ear drums, literally.

[ijustfartedsoloud]

@Jocker4567 ur an idiot

[Fearcandy64]

@Jocker4567 Why take history of jazz then?

[damfst23]

@Jocker4567 This is alot better than that coldplay or Justin Beiber or most of the hip-hop garbage that,s concocted!

[711DAS]

@damfst23 you know Miles Davis liked hip hop right? Type in Youtube "Max Roach Interview Rap music"

After all, it is an extension of their culture.....A creation of their children

[tomass1026]

@damfst23 LOL are you 100 years old?

[TERMINATORmod101T800]

If anything can go on a desert island with only one, I would not hesitate to choose it to. As loftiness and lonely and free sidekick best.

[LeWaterDrinker]

I feel like entering the twilight zone when i listen to this.

[teenmetalhead666]

that sax at 3:00 is absolutly haunting. love this tune

[DonSnypaDynasty]

This drove me crazy! Love it! and I dont even listen to Jazz that much

[francescsants]

Extraordinary !!!!

[baronvonbunghole]

best song to listen to dressed up as a detective and scowre the hard streets in order to unravel a mystery...

[Hamporkcheese]

drugs....

[legendsend]

@Hamporkcheese Bitches Brew came out waaay after Miles quit drugs. Learn your history

[Hamporkcheese]

@legendsend what ever.... what about his band???

[Johnnywhamo]

@legendsend He might not have been doing smack but I'd suggest strongly he was doing a mountain of coke and drinking heavily. just saying. His drug abuse didn't stop forever in the 50's 

[lacewing183]

@2:55 you cant see what i can see by Heavy D.

[tropicalpimp]

I first heard this 12 years ago while I was stationed in Japan. This brother from Detroit used to bump this really loud in the barracks and all the other Marines made fun of it..as if Garth Brooks was any better! ppfftt! . I was like "WOW, who the fuck is that??" "That's Miles Davis." he would say sticking his chin in the air. I was hooked. He made me a bunch of CD's with a LOT of material (yes, this dude had over 25 Davis albums!) This is one of my favs.. fuckin amazing!

[Grant2010ful]

Bernard Purdie...made this song with the drums demo...

[DeadHappyFilm]

MILES DAVES + LISTENER = MIND FUCK THEN YOUR HEAD EXPLODES YOU ENTER INTO A DIFFERENT DIMENSION JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME BEFORE YOU DIE IN YOUR LAST WORLD!.......Then you see Hendrix waving at you saying welcome.

[baked4211]

was this one of his later works, somebody once told me he did this type of music to get away from ballads because he was so good at them he just got sick of them.

[123cgull]

@baked4211 yeah i heard the same thing. he never liked to linger on one particular thing, always trying to do something new

[knierymeansfox]

Imagery. miles, saint louis and paris and harlem miss you.

[Scathe8000]

didn't Chick Corea play piano on this one?

[KaityT97]

I thank my teacher for letting us listen to these songs...

[The100Media]

Haven't heard this song in years... and I just realized Lord Finnesse sampled this for his track 'Actual Facts'....

[tonythebomb7]

legendary Miles

[texasB666]

Bitches Brew seems to be an album which could save our world or destroy it. It depends how you look at it... Either way, its a win situation.

[kristofor12345]

I don't know what is so captivating about this, I don't know if Miles did either.

[ThaGearOfWar]

@kristofor12345 at first I HATED bitches brew...but I'm starting to like it now!

[tiktaktrack]

@ThaGearOfWar I think you grew up by now!Welcome

[bluesjoe147]

i wonder if miles was on acid when he wrote this?

[badazzpresidents23]

Changed the way I thought of music.

[synesthesia67]

this is the best music on earth for a long road trip...

[navojoARISTOCRAT]

Delicious...

[belizedahype]

I love music as much as the next guy, but uh this, just random notes to me!

[purplestain24]

@belizedahype isnt that all music

[badazzpresidents23]

@purplestain24 Thank you for sayign what I was gonna say man! :D

[TetraFlapjak]

@belizedahype its acid jazz maannn

you gotta feel the vibes the "random notes" radiate!

you need to read a timothy leary book brotherin,

[the23rdmonkey]

@belizedahype Atmoshpere.

[belizedahype]

@the23rdmonkey well sir, since you put it that way.....

[mrpossibilities]

Wayne Shorter took a lot of the sound of this band in his album Supernova.

[illmaticice1989]

miles is so smoooooth!

[kelvinkloud]

sad he and hendrix couldnt record... he wouldve save hendrix & got him in a sustaining path.

[hemp503]

i too celebrate the life of my father who included this tune as part of my up bringing, rip DAD 1937-2010

[th3azscorpio]

my dad loved some Miles Davis, especially bitches brew. He used to play this every weekend, and Im happy to say that it's rubbed off on me. ~RIP~ now you can chill with miles up there and talk up a storm!

[RahkmanX]

10 people need to have their ears checked!!

[Madman007]

This is Jackson Pollack set to music. Art in its musical form. Proves that music doesn't have to be melodic to be beautiful.

[grandtheftautocj]

Well , i have this record in vinyl and i have to say, this youtube version sounds so overcompressed, that it actually sounds awful, if you ever have the chance to listen this record in vinyl, don't think it twice, because is another whole experience ;)

[elgaed69]

this is more like art than music, really. but it is good art.

[elgaed69]

@elgaed69 it's also great how it occasionally becomes more musical, occasionally more just artistic. it is almost like a very abstract kind of movie where the sounds represent the inner reality of the artist.

[bigdime72]

THE 10 THUMBS DOWN DONT KNOW SHYT BOUT JAZZ!!!!!!!

[CreeWilly]

@ PerryCoxPF93: How u doin, doctor! Whats with the "PF93", tho?

[PerryCoxPF93]

@CreeWilly My favorite band is pink floyd and I was born in 1993..haha

[CreeWilly]

@PerryCoxPF93: lol. ur one cryptic motherf... like ur style, tho! take it easy, doctor.

[PerryCoxPF93]

@CreeWilly will do cree, will do..............

[boozygrogy]

@CreeWilly - most online handles are cryptic.

[CreeWilly]

@boozygrogy: True. I mean, not even I could tell u what "CreeWilly" means.

[zah138]

@PerryCoxPF93 that means your only like 18 and you listen to miles i started listening to him round the same time cool deal yo your on the right path

[paulzz81]

Hello, Percival. Just subscribed :-)

Great channel

[MrVelsan77]

Beethoven, mozart, Elvis, The Beatles, Michael, Rollings, y en mi lista , ole ole ole ole ole ole MIles Miles que grande

[marlinfish128]

If I may...when I first heard this jam....I was about 15 and partook in a littel herb...Man! I thought I was halling straight to hell! It blew my mind. Lightweight status...from that experience, I grew to appreciate almost every giant that came through that funnel. Mahavishnu, Weather report, chick, Joe zawanal, herbie H. even louis gasca. All that jass became part of me....sumbody say a prayer! : )

[nosequiters]

ive tried most drugs recreational in in exhistance often regularly... and you know what, I dont think they could add anything to the experiance of miles davis

[RavingRockets]

I just listened to this on shrooms yesterday and holy shit. The visuals I had were amazing, you know those old cartoons that have like jazz music in them it felt like I was in one. Craaazy shit suggest anyone try it.

[adagwood]

@RavingRockets I bet

[baraqijal15]

The best jazz album of all time. Is an all-time trip when you listen while stoned out of your mindddd....

[Jazzelegance]

Masterpiece. Must have a certain intellect to love this.

[ElTiant]

The greatest album of all-time mothafuckaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssss­ssssssss

[TheNewyorkfashion]

One of his famous lines is "i'll play it and tell you what it is latter"

[TheNewyorkfashion]

It's always great to hear Miles talking in the background, he conducted in a whisper.

[TheNewyorkfashion]

In bitches brew, you can hear Miles say, "keep it like that, keep it tight" He's refering to the great rythm you are hearing. what a genius.

[TheNewyorkfashion]

Miles was a genius. checkout the tune "freddie freeloader" too. It's on kind of blue. it's earlier miles. he put the cool in jazz.

[TheNewyorkfashion]

the more you listen the more you will realize that this is a masterpeice.

[saxophoneninja]

6 months ago when my teacher told me to listen to this i was like "oh god, this is gross" But now I can actually hear the recurring motives and stuff. it's pretty neat.

[Beck19781]

A lot of early fusion has collective improvisation at its core. If you listen to the earliest Weather Report, Catalyst (out of Philly), Hancock's Mwandishi band, or some of Pat Martino's early fusion oriented work (Live! from '73), there's a lot of collective improvising in there. The result is work which is arguably more rhythmically daring than a lot of later fusion. Players could be swinging 1 minute, playing funk the next, then switching to a free approach. It was a great time in music.

[Beck19781]

One of the things I always loved about this album is how inimitable it is. You have rock influences (in some of the tone colors) and r&b influences (in some of the rhythms), but it doesn't sound as close to a rock or r&b tune the same way that some later jazz fusion styles do. Its not hard to imagine a tune like "Birdland" or "Casino" on the radio in the late 70s side by side with Steely Dan or Fleetwood Mac. Hearing this on the radio side by side with "Let It Be" in '70 would be weird.

[Fullmetalsnake54]

My teacher must've been high of his ass telling me to listen to this BS.

[jkfielder]

@Fullmetalsnake54 your teacher is a genius

[saxophoneninja]

@Fullmetalsnake54 your teacher probably has an abnormal jazz education for a band teacher.

[AstroAnt]

ecwhalibriant.

[breakingwalls]

simplemente genio universal, en cualquier otro planeta, o lugar, o pescado, esto es arte

[breakingwalls]

[AeroWing]

@MaestroTJS Geez man, calm down. One great thing about music is that there's something for everyone. Not everybody likes jazz, and that's great. No reason for you to get upset.

[MaestroTJS]

@AeroWing lol, re-reading that, I think you're right. Not sure what was up with me that night....

(And actually, for the most part, I don't love jazz at all, but there are a few exceptions, such as this album.)

[kmwboston]

i came into my history of jazz class extremely skeptical. but this class has changed me.... I LUUUUUUUUUUUUUURV JAZZ

[kingjojothegreat]

to me, this is the sound of insanity

[operationmongoose1]

Did miles compose this music or is it mostly just improvisational? I ran across this tonight. This is the first time I have ever heard anything off of Bitches Brew. I am digging it. I can get into this. It reminds me of the music in the original Planet of the Apes movie. This is thought provoking music.

[WhiteNightRiots]

@operationmongoose1 It's kind of improvisational from what I understand. I think he kind of had a rough idea of what he wanted, threw all his fellow musicians into a studio (who were clueless as to what they were about to be playing), and made them sight read this weird ass shit. Cool as hell though 8-\

[timothyeral]

@WhiteNightRiots Miles always knew whbro. He once said he wanted to make music that people could not dance to.at he was doing

[iscottm]

@operationmongoose1 in an interview i think Corea said the closest miles came to telling him what to play was reaching around him on the keyboard, said "check this out" and played 3 triads

[tylurcousins]

my birthday is on 4/20 and i got this album for my bday and i listened to it while i was high. i was scared out of my fucking mind

[jemigdepemig11]

@tylurcousins

High on what? Noobie, lol

[tylurcousins]

@tylurcousins haha what do you mean noobie? and i was high on marijuana and shrooms so thanks :)

[tecch2]

@tylurcousins haha i got this album for my birthday 2 days ago. Gonna give that a try ;D

[yamba01]

@tylurcousins I know. Listening to this reminded me instantly of how sick I was in the hospital years ago.

[roscoegino]

@tylurcousins hahahahaha

[SegaGuy7]

@tylurcousins Why you high man? im glad you listening to Miles Davis, but that ain't cool man

[PrototypeC4]

@SegaGuy7 What's wrong with smoking a little herb?

[tylurcousins]

@SegaGuy7 its organic and good for the soul



[Knoxerboy101]

@SegaGuy7

Cannabis is one of the best plants on this planet and has many medicinal uses. Ask my mother who is still alive because of cannabis, which helped her cancer.

Great music though.

[AaronBaker12345]

@Knoxerboy101 Yeah, you can actually cure cancer with hemp oil man, theres a guy where im from that did, but got in trouble by stupid fucks so now hes in amsterdam I guess. Another guy from Italy cured many people using baking soda and a few other things, theres even some chemical that is put in pools that has cured aids, the list goes on and on, pharmacidal drugs are fucking poison. Natural herbs are the best, things have even been cured through group meditations within several minutes.

[iantor7000]

@SegaGuy7 fuck you

[stalin378]

Well i see youtube has tweaked their system yet again to prevent downloads which is their perogative.

However, if they do not want their videos download, WHY THE FUCK PUT A SHARE BOX BELOW IT IN THE FIRST PLACE?

[texasB666]

I just came back from an alcohol delerium and listening to this makes me feel alive, once again. My penis even becomes erect for no real reason and i don't feel ashemd at all. Hell, even when you're in a coma, bitches brew will wake you.

[KidsOntheRoof]

super dope.

[paradebaraki]

you dont need training to like or dslike music. or you like or not .

telling that this album is good because i was trained to listen music or criticise it does not make any sense . you like it or not. music is like a food you dont have to be trained to like something is just personal taste. saying about training is snoby

[vaLerian7400]

hi guys, i'm a newcomer to Jazz... just want to know if it's too late when you're 21 or there's no such thing as too late in music? thanks in advance

[TheMuzicar93]

u cant listen to love supreme on begining.thats the dummest thing i ever heard.

[duldej]

I don't understand music, but I know for sure that I love this song. I don't care about the politics. Mr. Davis was a master. You could walk for miles, and never fathom this song.

[ericgelders]

Very cool piece of music. Miles' stuff is still very fresh and interesting today (and will be in the future, I guess). Coincidentally I recognized that Adam F sampled parts of the trompet bursts (0:47 - 2:50) on his 1997 drum 'n bass album 'Colours', on the tracks 'intro' and '73'. Pretty cool.

[Jordan16Montague]

this is mortifying

[roscoegino]

davis trumpet grabs u by the throat and says "you gonna lisen to me!"

[TheFatyBella]

love the song...&Big WoW for the Cover!!!

[PerryCoxPF93]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 Start with Kind of Blue, then A Love Supreme, then Bitches Brew, then maybe some Charlie Bird or early bebop to get the full perspective.

Hope you like some of them.....

[ShineOnCrazyDiamond1]

@PerryCoxPF93 Awesome :D, i've heard kind of blue is one of the greatest albums ever released. Thanks alot :D

[MusicFromBelgium]

@PerryCoxPF93 You're totally right

[sqwuade]

@PerryCoxPF93 Check out some John Coltrane!

[ShineOnCrazyDiamond1]

@PerryCoxPF93 I bought and listend to kind of blue, it is now my lounge music!

[Squibfire]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 i say start with Kind of Blue- Miles Davis then Getz/Gilberto- Stan Getz then go on youtube and listen to some Dizzy Gillespie and Art Blakey also try some Wes Montgomery and Benny Goodman (try Sing, Sing, Sing) those will be some good jumping off points (if you like nay of it then try Colman Hawkins, Art Tatum, John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk)

[ShineOnCrazyDiamond1]

@Squibfire Also awesome! cheers mate!

[musicshake]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 I think the best way to start with jazz is to study it a little bit on an instrument or at least you should read about its history, the histroy of some of the most important artists...so that you could understand what they were trying to express with their music. Personally I fell in love with jazz the first time I listened to My Favourite Things by Coltrane..the Kind of Blue...some of the Bird, Hawkins and Stan Getz....there are all the drum, guitar, bass and piano players

[Guitarstring187]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 start easy. And take a look at dave brubeck take five. allot of people start there.

[shotteebwoi1O2]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 Definitely start with the Blue Note catalog! You will enjoy a lot of artists like Herbie Hancock and Donald Byrd!

[luizmarcondesmusica]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 start with anything by duke ellington. thats your jazz 101 right there. bitches brew is like advanced classes. save it for later.

[SubconsciousDweller]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1>>> Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Thelonious MOnk, Eric Dolphi, Herbie handcock, john Mc Laughlin, Sonny Rollins, then branch out from there...good LUCK on You r Journey to the Most Amazing Audio Orgasms Ever....!!

[andrejas1974]

Hi, here's my starting list (the same I followed when I got into jazz) soundtrack of the movie WHEN HARRY MET SALLY Duke Ellington, MONEY JUNGLE Miles Davis, KIND OF BLUE Ben Webster, BEN WEBSTER AND ASSOCIATES Lester Young, LESTER YOUNG WITH THE OSCAR PETERSON TRIO Charlie Parker and Dizzie Gillespie, BIRD & DIZ Sonny Rollins, SAXOPHONE COLOSSUS Wes Montgomery, INCREDIBLE JAZZ GUITAR John Coltrane, GIANT STEPS Enjoy them!

@MichaelDelbeecke

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1

/watch?v=PPHtQn1t1n4

[taniaowatatsumi]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 Coltrane: My favorite things, Olé! Mingus: Oh yeah, the black saint and the sinner lady, moanin' Thelonius Monk: Everything, he's THE jazzman, arguably. Don Cherry: Eternal rhythm Dizzy Gillespie: Kush, swing low sweet cadillac Steve Lacy: Morning Joy, We see Roland Kirk: Blacknuss, Ain't no sunshine, volunteer slavery Ornette Coleman: Change of the Century, the shape of jazz to come Eric Dolphy: Last date (amazing live) Albert Ayler: New grass David S. Ware: Godspelized..

[FCO0710]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1

not here! haha. Nothing against Bitches brew, but you'll be hard pressed to find anyone performing stuff like this in concert halls today. Are you trying to listen to more jazz or play more?

[JCR1992]

to add to what perrycox said i was also look into Miles Davis' In a Silent Way and Porgy and Bess, Also Coltrane's Giant Steps Charles Mingus Mingus Ah Um Horace Silvers Song for my Father and Art Blakeys Moanin as well. I started out with those as some beginner albums

[jammervoor]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 if you play an instrument, try playing a jazz tune.

[vyse75]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 er, deffinately not bitches brew, go with some dizzy Gillespie or some charlie parker, even dave brubeck quartet.

[clusterfuck667]

@vyse75 dave brubeck sucks a dick!

[deliciousmorton]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 lambert, hendricks, and ross.

[DanSkaMetal813]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1 Definitely "A Love Supreme" and maybe "Hub Tones" by Freddie Hubbard

[aarfeld]

@ShineOnCrazyDiamond1: Start on Basin Street and keep walking through the neighborhood until you get On The Corner. Hope you like the tour. ;-)

[clusterfuck667]

@aarfeld ah yeah! on the corner - first album i heard by miles.

[aarfeld]

@clusterfuck667: The Ken Burns PBS series on Jazz produced a five-CD boxed set that gives a good overview of the whole history of Jazz. All of us will think to ourselves: "Why didn't they include (fill in the blank)?" But it gives a pretty good overview of all of the various movements within Jazz over it's long history--about a century long now.

[clusterfuck667]

@aarfeld not aware of that, whole century of jazz ? hmm - bit less, no ?

[aarfeld]

@clusterfuck667: The documentary gives some interesting examples of early Jazz going back as far as 1909. Some like to consider Ragtime as one of the origin forms that led to Jazz, taking us back into the 1890s. Black artistic expression not being deemed worth of recording by the white power structures in this country, I believe the first Jazz recording dates to 1917, which is part of the reason that we know so little of origins that take us back into the first decade of the 20th century.
