Miles Davis - Stuff (1/2)

[ayhanlina]

Why do i see it again. Now i have to listen again and again. This song f*ck me everytime.

ahh what the heck..

[MrBillc1023]

I remember this LP. It was important because it reresented Miles' first incursion into the electric/funk dimension. At this point the fusion of jazz and rock was thought to be unholy by many jazz purists. I applaud MIles for being bold enough to folow his instincts and step out there. Long live the spirit of innovation...it's what makes improvisation what it is

[TheNewSelection]

sounds great on wax...

[ehuloko]

This was the first Miles LP I ever bought. 1968. I loved it- although In a Silent Way is my favorite.

Eat you hearts out all you younger musicians. Better yet, learn instead--and forge ahead- realize music does not emanate from a computer. It can actually be played on instruments!

[guillotinedeath]

Miles Davis greatest artist ever he didnt only create music he created GENRES

[watasenia]

Miles is Haydn if Charlie Parker were Bach.

[MrShuggieTodd]

One of the first use of electric instruments in Miles' s second quintet ! Great !

[pixelmike]

This tune is really awesome. It is delicate....and slightly funky. Those drums are great.....and that mellow rhodes...it's really nice sounding.

I think this album is so important as it was the start of things really moving over to electric - just at the start. Really dig the album cover as well. How exciting 1968 must have been.

[claryscat]

I've listened to this a thousand million times and i never get tired of it.

[halfbakedryan1]

So high. Beyond words. Thank you for the sky. We'll take good care of it.

MILES FOREVER

[Keyboardman88]

I may be mistaken, but I believe that this is the first time that Herbie Hancock used a Fender Rhodes electric piano on a recording.

[aarfeld]

@Keyboardman88: I believe I've read that as well. This was something of a transitionary album for Miles--pointing the way towards his electric period to come but only part way there

[MrShuggieTodd]

@aarfeld To be accurate, Miles asked Hancock and Carter to switch over to electricity on 2 songs that didn't appear before the 80s on disc : Circle In the Round and Water On The Pond (December 1967)

[FaaarLeft]

8:10 I'm sold.

[postatility]

I know this is sayin' a lot,but this track has as much attitude as any ever recorded,before or since. In any era.In any genre. I'm just sayin'. In many ways,almost 20 years since his passing,Miles still rules!!

[Gzarnanplat]

I just can not get this out of my head. And I don't ever want to. I will love this to my dying breath.

[PoggiiBonsii]

listen carefully.... to.......tony williams

[KhalDrogo76]

@PoggiiBonsii The. Greatest. RIP, miss him every day left way too soon

[BF9music]

Anyone else notice the similarity in the album cover and gong's mandala?

[postatility]

Funk was born wrapped in this Mutha!!!

[C0NTR4B455]

Yea Miles in '68 re-introducing that heavy black back beat to his abstract brothers..Awesome!! Never looked back from this..Onwards to the mystic beats of Argatha.

[FenderRhodesService]

One of the first recordings with a prolific role for the Fender Rhodes , Herbie playing it. A bit thinly intonated maybe.

[PompeiiMagnus]

my favorite intro!

[TheBacmaster]

Miles Davis was and still is the master !!! Thanks for the memories..5/5

[BF9music]

miles never disapoints. i could listen forever but, the song is only 16 min or so. one of my fav jazz songs.

[YossarianTheMeerkat]

wayne shorter is on fire

[PoggiiBonsii]

incredible beautiful

[lEMGl]

hey thx for the uploads..Great music

[actiondy]

PerryCox you have inspired me to purchase all the CDs of Miles and the other fusion artists you have posted...thanks for introducing this side of the spectrum to me

[PerryCoxPF93]

I'm glad to do it.  exposing people to the beauty of miles

[pickinstone]

@PerryCoxPF93 I think the problem is the label. It's just good music, the word fusion seems to lessen the effect for me. Ain't the j-word, f-word, the c-word, or the "let me appease a certain part of the market by giving them some cannon fodder to chomp their gums to their friends" kinda music. Just good music.

[mezafaith]

genius
