"The Pan Piper" by Miles Davis & Gil Evans

[Graham1983]

Anybody who played Final Fantasy 8 or 9, is there a song in either by Uematsu that sounds exactly like this, or at least keeps this melody? So familiar

[duhjuce]

magnifique

[uniiverselove]

this song actually takes me to a foreign land. I felt Spain- the sun, the rich reds and blacks of food and culture... Davis knows exactly how to paint a picture

[davidWgruUP909]

@Zeld1122 just don't go to San Bernardino.

[ThePlanetCanada]

One of the greatest songs in history.

[genericusername337]

[kinstube]

H!!!!!!!!!!!!!GHER POWER

[jay1beaux]

Beautiful

[Greenless001]

Beautiful. This is the only album of his, of the few i've heard, that i truly enjoy listening to.

[wbaranful]

@Greenless001 You don't like Kind of Blue. Check it out. Also Porgy and Bess, done as well with Gil Evans. I'm not big on the fusion stuff. I think rock guys like the Doors and the Byrds did fusion better than the jazz guys. Talent rock guys were reaching upward in their fusion. Jazz goes were reaching down. They probably had noble intentions but...

[bangorabbey]

i agree..MR Miles Davis is in "the zone " on this album

[Jlipnicki]

'Where is the wisdom lost in knowledge, where is the knowledge lost in information ?'

TS Eliot

Could now add where is the information lost in data.

Lets face it , we are lost. But there is still music.

[wbaranful]

@Jlipnicki I think it all started going down hill when AT&T began charging for information calls. They should have known it was unwise

[collin292]

I really like the version that Buckethead did.....

[blocke5324]

One of my favorite Miles tunes. I've always thought that if I were ever being marched through the desert to my death this is the song I would want to hear. It speaks to the small failures and triumphs in life, but at the same time rings back to the drudgery of existence.

[yarhud]

i love the background section.... almost mistical...

[jauntin]

man! you can't imagine how cool it is for someone from spain, that has absorved spanish music all his life, to listen to this!!

[wbaranful]

@jauntin You're very absorvent

[frtw4428]

A friend from work wore out this album three times (when it was out on cassette) from listening to it -that's how much he loves it. I can understand why - what a fantastic musician! R.I.P. Mr. Davis

[olafomeyer]

sounds like Salvador Dali with eyes closed.

[CaptainBuster]

Yeah, this tune always makes me hungry, I love that deli!

[bradshawvincent]

miles and gil ,a musical marriage made in heaven!

[MRAm33t]

this song and Will O' the Wisp...my 2 favorites from this album....love the horns and flutes in the background.

[passjay]

very pretty!!

[Kolens100]

What words can one use to explain or describe the sound, to even come close.....

[classy1973]

ONE OF THE BEST JAZZ ALBUMS EVER

[amjan]

@classy1973 Jazz doesn't deserve to be associated with this masterpiece.

[pmfzero]

@amjan that's a really stupid comment.

[pmfzero]

@amjan that's a really stupid comment. Guess you don't know anything about Duke Ellington, either.

[budmotor]

Coltrane, Chuck D, Pam Grier are Beautiful

[pacoenigmatic]

Enjoy - I certainly did

Many thanks

[GTR813]

[freddo1939]

[Zeld1122]

"Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is THE BEST..." -Frank Zappa

[ServantOfTheFemale]

Indeed, i myself have never really considered any of those things to be one another. However, if information is not knowledge, what would you call one who is informed? :)

-SOTF

[contrarianatrest]

@ServantOfTheFemale "informed."

[wbaranful]

@ServantOfTheFemale Are you looking for a synonym?

[uniiverselove]

@ServantOfTheFemale he's informed. just informed.

[archdeaconj]

@ServantOfTheFemale Good.  Let us not abandon logic.

[wbaranful]

@Zeld1122 This Zappa fellow seems to be quite opinionated, in at least one instance blatantly contradicting John Keats

[SONOFDB]

@Zeld1122 The 1st line is actually a quote from Albert Einstein, Although Zappa amended it, brilliantly I might add...

[claybornwilliams]

good for doing your homework.

[henri65]

Very nice.

[valdestana]

[budmotor]
