Miles Davis & Co. At the Isle of Wight Festival

Miles Davis plays at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970.

On a completely different note, here's a vid I'm promoting about a child trying to make a difference in the world: http://vimeo.com/29067223

I've finally watched "A different Kind of Blue". It's a problem when people give too much credit to music critics. Most of them are completely useless. Even in the renaissance a genius like Monteverdi had to deal with pathetic people like Artusi. Stanley Crouch is musically incapable of understanding what Bitches Brew was about. The funny thing is that Stanley Crouch will go down in history as a NOBODY, while Miles as one of the greatest musicians who has ever lived.

QUE JEFE

..maybe the last time Jarrett played electric piano in public

total bullshit from start to as far as you can put up with this "pretentious arrogant jejune crap!" ,miles did say "call it what you want "

[Dany Cow]

I've watched this and I like it and recognise Mr Davis as great musician. But this whole thing of "UNDERSTADING" music gives me the creeps. I believe music is to be felt just that. "Use the force Luke"

Classically trained. Good for you. Apparently you can be trained to have this talent. Contradiction?

Well, I just feel that this is Miles Davis being like, "I can make whatever noise I want and people will listen to it."

[CristiaanC]

You're obviously not a musician. If you were you'd understand this is an amalgamation of emotion, instinctual movement and knowledge of the instrument, and communication between the musicians. I'm a classically trained jazz musician, and I can feel every second of this performance. The first time i heard this performance, I felt like I was getting high. Sorry man, you don't have it. Talent like this can't be trained, you're born with it.

LOL! does anybody actually like that shit ?

A 41 year old video ? Quality is amazing..!!! Airto, DeJohnette, Jarrett, Dave Holland..Interstingly probably the last recorded vid of Jarrett on electric piano...This sounds similar to Miles at the Fillmore East..

Na bateria eu não sei mas na percussão é o brasileiro Airto Moreira

[iguanalunar]

Jazz makes me feel nervous, cause the fact of having no direction keeps giving me surprises, I never know what to wait about the next second of the song. I find it hard to understand too...
