+Tapio Rantala It's amazing how all these musicians became big names in jazz...
Keith Jack and Chick would be famous no matter what.
Are sure about the personnel ? Part of the year that was true, yet it is definitely Keith Jarret who is playing Fender-Rhodes @30', that sure looks and sounds a lot more like Jaco on bass, and Chick Corea is playing an ARP synthesizer for the encore.
When Miles leave the stage at 42'57" , the first fan he met at his right in the backstage was the young Carlos Santana.
INCREDIBLE!
Yes, there is a Santana interview on You Tube where he is asked when did he first meet Miles Davis. Santana said it was at this concert.
Santana played on the bill that night. Their whole set is on here too
Wow, that is Carlos Santana!
I wonder, did Bartz actually despise Jarrett or Jarrett's style of playing? Jarrett provides the best colors & temperance. The band itself, is smokin'.
This period of Miles is what helped me crossover into jazz as a prog rock fan.
I was born 2 hours after Miles’ performance at Isle of Wight festival Sat 29.08.70. His music will never be forgotten.RIP.
Miles was a genius. He kept changing with the times for 5 decades. Amazing!

if you want, access this source to read the full article... we just read it and we liked it...let's go
Two keyboards and no guitar Miles with DeJohnette gives such a different feel to his live performances. Reminiscent of On the Corner a few years later because of the drumming style. Maybe my favourite electric Miles live lineup?
According to Bartz Miles was in a really good place with this band, no drinking, no smoking etc. It shows, they kill every performance I've seen. Make sure you don't miss the Isle of Wight performance with the same group, fucking mindblowing
THIS CONCERT WAS EXACLY FOUR WEEKS BEFORE THE DEATH OF JIMI HENDRIX 9-18 70 WHAT A SHAME JIMI WANED SO BAD TO DO A ALBUM WITH MILES IN 1970 BEFORE HE DIED MAYBE SOME OF THESE GREAT MUSICIANS WOULD OD BEEN ON THERE OR AT LEASE GUEST ON THE LP!! IY WAS SUPPOSE TO BE MILES TONY WILLIAMS PAUL McCartney BASS JIMI GUITAR WHAT A LINE UP. WHICH PROBALY WOULD HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE GREATEST LPS EVER MADE SOMETHING ON THE LEVEL AS KIND OF BLUE!! WHAT A DAM SHAME!!!
Yes! Isle of Wight is absolutely 🔥
I love all the stuff Keith Jarret plays in this - it's like he takes the Bitches Brew weird riffs somewhere else .........and when Miles D plays on his own it's so moving. Bitches Brew was the sound of the past, future and the present ...it's complex music that is well funky
axs203 I prefer Chick’s playing. Keith’s organ is just a mushy noise. He was good after Chick left and he took over the Fender Rhodes.
And the interplay with Chick Corea on Directions is beyond description. Some serious listening and response was done between the two after Gary Bartz solo.
@@johnayres2303 I agree, the two amazing keyboardists get in each other's way. Chick was perfect as the only keyboardist. Here and Isle of Wight, Chick spends alot of playing time trying not to get in Jarrett's way phrase wise and sonically. You can hear Chick try to engage Jarrett, but either because of poor stage sound or Jarret's personal deference, they don't really engage with each other much. Jarrett's long lyricism and 'ragtime-funk' stylings didn't work well in this band until he was the only keyboardist. Chick was WAY too quick for Jarrett.
Not everyone can understand this music..,....... I'm glad l can..
This should be shown everywhere. They should make screens at traffic lines showing this performance.
The painted lines delineating car movement? Sounds like a crazy amount of screens when we can just distribute cuicas to the homeless.
I would be stuck in traffic watching instead of driving.
They wont u no
Yes it could be titled the sounds of traffic accidents. Lololooo just joking!!!!!!
The title of this. The sounds traffic accidents make lolololooooo
Miles Davis and Santana on the same stage on the same night. Two amazing sets, people got their money’s worth
Yeah! Miles plays his last note starts off the stage takes his mute from off the top of Corea's fender rhoades. Corea gets up walks off behind Dave Holland following Miles. Santana, in the leather jacket, clapping with Bill Graham, follows Corea. Then Bartz, and then Jarrett leave. Bill Graham goes to the mic. I saw Moreira getting his percussion array off the stage floor. DeJohnette I could not see what happened there, he may have already left the stage. That had to be an unbelieveable night of sounds.
@@darrylguerrant5101 Carlos knew what was up. Being a fan of Miles himself, he was more than grateful for the chance to share the stage with a true legend.
This performance turned 40 years old as of yesterday...
...And still sounds fresh as hell! Miles and co. absolutely ruled.
Jason Demakis more than fresh. Still ahead he was a visionary.
It was always Miles and Co and not the other way round. He was like an immortal Coach the last of the GODS. Always scouting the best players to suit his next fatal genius formation. He would come in hungover as a Dog not talking to anyone all he did was begin the count,,,,Miles always put his ART above everything. A total Musical entity we mere mortals have the rare pleasure to witness every once thousand years.
50 years young, now.
I think your math is wrong
I feel ultimately blessed watching this. I finished my Miles Davis album collection 5 years ago. And only had the albums to enjoy. Now i have the honor to watch him perform in a concert filmed in 1970? WOW!!!!!!
+Owen Rich right! isn't youtube great :D
+Lisa Fan Yes it is. I guess you do have an idea how great it is too lol. Maybe I'll be inspired to share some of my collection of videos and audio as well. I don't mean to be selfish...i'm just so caught up in sea of treats on here that I can't move lol.
Most are all takes, Miles was all about the moment. Live was what made Miles great Jazz is all about Improv. Now a ''Live'' performance is another producer version. Miles was always beyond all that Crap.
NO ONE...will remember that 'wyn-done' mutherfckr. Compared to Miles? Ha!
Dewey laughs last....! HaHaHaHa!!
I saw him play Smith College Fall 1970 right after this concert I believe---nothing like it
What a treat to see Dave Holland playing both the Fender and the upright bass with this sublime group.
The iconic Jack Johnson photo comes from this concert.
I always loved that one.
I remember I was at a Tool concert (in NH), and I saw a young man wearing a t-shirt with that photo on it. I was thoroughly impressed 👍
miles lives
Airtooo!🙌🏼🇧🇷
Same event that Santana played on, it's also on YT. John Scofield has said he went to this concert, just a few weeks before the of his freshman year at Berklee College of Music. This one and the follow up from 1971 were my fave bands form Miles 'electric' era.
Great！
あふれる音の中を、マイルスのリフやフレーズが自在に泳ぐ感じです。サイドマンの出す音を聴いて、ここというところで吹いています。ドラムやベースのリズムがもう中東やアフリカの音楽、時にはフリージャズ風ですね。
「もう、ハードバップは、やり尽くした。今のオレの音楽はこれだ」、マイルスはそんな心境だったのでしょうか。
I cried real tears when Miles died.
me too...
Kevy Moranski The world cried....
I never get sad if it's an artist I admire and never met who died. I feel like our relationship is unchanged. The music lives on.
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION - This is the definition of freedom of expression and whatever was going on in Mile's personal life he was the man----Head and shoulders beyond everybody else it remains the bomb.... so good, so fresh, so brilliant! All hail, Miles Davis.
This is some serious next level shit.
BIGCIO - and then some!
@@jorgemartin5093 just playng!
but it is of course a MASTERPIECE!
im with that Man. Seriously sweet
thank you deeply....LOVE Elec. Miles... and the 2 keys (Chick/Keith) lineup is primo mind-bend! (=
This is about as raw as they come. Been listening to lots of Miles lately both audio and video, but THIS one takes the fucking cake! Thanks for the upload my friend.
Yea man it's straight up raw. Most of its improvised, but its so real, so free. It's a battle out there.
I'd think this isn't raw - it's exactly what that was meant to be.
MILES' CURTAIN CALL AND ENCORE, IS THE BEST I'VE EVER FELT! WE all WERE BLOWN AWAY BY WHAT WE JUST SAW & HEARD!
It is a pity that our kids will never listen to this or experience such a great musician in real life. We should be grateful and praise ourselves lucky that we lived in an era of such giants.
My kids have NO choice. They are surrounded by it.
Mine too
Cinema and Jazz: the two original North American art forms. I'm not American but, -given the film and the music at least, - I'm damn glad their culture exists. (On top of that, having visited the country on a number of occasions, the people are great too)!
Miles Davis and then Santana in the same night: wow!
for both the concert of their lives it seems
Yeah at 14 years old I was there and it changed my musical life. I'm not a pro musician but as a listener it was a stretch I needed. On top of the Miles Santana musical bomb, The Voices of East Harlem and a 40 piece Trinidadian steel drum band was a real education beyond mere entertainment. I consider myself VERY lucky to have been there
oh thanks Gianca to say that i didn't know...'cause the Santana concert is a crasy one...one of my favourite....and Miles at this period is my god as Santana...whaoa!!!! A dream had existed...!!! But i was too youg and i live in France, i discover them when i was 12/13 in 1973...they are always my gods....all my long life they have been my light in music...!!! ( excuse my english...)
@@DiamondImages3DMiami Wow , that's awesome man!
I was there also. I remember the steel band, and Santana. Out on the lawn in a huge crowd, just taking it all in. I’ve been watching the Santana clips for some time time now, amazed at how good they were. I think it was a little hard to tell, far from the stage with only 1970 tv on the building. I was shocked to find out Miles was there, just last week when I saw the clips. He was way over my head then, but it didn’t take too long for me to find out. After I grew a little, I was smarter, and went back to Tanglewood to see Ella Fitzgerald with Count Basie. I’ve been very lucky.
Pure interactive genius. Makes complete sense to me.
Miles Davis was a musical badass!
Love the In a Silent Way version from 21:00 to 28:00, Gary Bartz shows so much restraint before he starts to solo. Chick right on the money- you never see him since the camera always follows Jarrett,s hypnotic gyrations . Bartz solo on Spanish Key really swings. Shorter is a really tough act to follow- I love this group with DeJohnette and Dave on bass with Airto and Chick.
Dave THE MAN Holland
YES
That Miles Runs the Version is crazy, he somehow sounds half bored doing an everyday task and at the same time like every note is the most important sound of all time.
Miles was so healthy and strong in this.
Miles Davis live at Tanglewood
The concert was filmed as well and you can see the 44 year old Miles Davis entering the stage looking in as good or in better shape than his 20 year younger band members, and he is playing some very powerful trumpet. A black and white photograph of Davis from the concert, in a sleeveless undershirt and suede trousers blowing his horn at full power was later used for the cover of the Jack Johnson (1971) album. 30:03

This was excellent footage.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
When I was 14 yrs old, I got tix to SANTANA and I got to see Miles and the Genius Crew too.. They opened the concert at Tanglewood of all places. I JUST found this UA-cam and am thrilled. Love Santana but became more of a Miles fan in the following years. I heard Miles gave Carlos some coke and Carlos felt he never found his groove that day.......could be lore
I don't believe that. The Santana set that would follow this Miles set is unbelievable. They're on fire, better than the Woodstock performance.
for these guys at the time it must have been so fun playing dissonant type of solos over a grove. if you think about it they reached a point in their musical careers that they needed to break from the structure of bebop, blues and other jazz forms and needed a creative release. They wanted to see how far out they could go combining scales with keys that didn't typically blend anything that broke the traditional sounds. it's similar to painters who experiment with abstract a way to break from the norm and still express that which is locked in your head. for most this just sounds like a bunch of guys warming up but the way their minds work there is a very reasonable method to the madness. By doing things like this new music can find a way.
Well said....
It's modal jazz
Killer Miles awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwway
No wonder.... I was like... dude this just sounds like noise, what's wrong with ME that I'm not getting what all the hype around Miles Davis is about? His whole career he just did the same 1 thing over and over again... waiting around for bars and bars of rests at a time, then popping in with noises sometimes that sounds like a cat dying a horrific death. Some of the licks indeed are more like sound effects than actual melodies comprised of harmonious notes... (I'm a musician myself, play bass and guitar, had a touring metal band for a decade, etc...)
we were lucky to witness this period of Miles more than any other ////
Amazes me how people don’t get how accessible this is. This is Miles at Fillmore delivered in a much more succinct manner with enormous power and coiled energy
Show me any music that even comes close to this...from any era. John Zorn probably comes close but this is beyond anything anyone could comprehend. I also think it comes during a time where there were so many young and super talented jazz musicians who were discovering their sound during their time with Miles. And of course Miles brought out things in them they didn't even know were there.
This is on steady rotation. One of Miles great bands, so much to listen to!
Most interesting, intellectual, uncompromising and unappreciated period of Miles, in my opinion. Jazz will never be some kind of canned music for esthetes.
Why quite right old boy! Wacko.
Awesome lineup Terrific ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
can't help but tap your feet to this.
Wow! Utterly amazing!
42:00 davisoneill!
miles is the ultimate jazz artist.
Fascinant...
Hell yeah!!!! thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
at 30:40 when he launches into "Spanish Key"...so funky!!!
yooooooo
Just like the isle of Wight concert. He plays that intro riff, and the band is immediately right there with him. No hesitation. Just launched into it.
The transition really impresses me. Jack Dejohnette is ALL over it, just gives a grin and falls into.that funky groove....incredible band
@@mikefields4136 For me the DeJohnette period is the coolest of electric Miles. non stop creativity, funky as hell with an mind-bending elasticity of time. When Foster took over it was the exact opposite.
Al Foster added his equally important and awesome own flair to Miles’s band.
What a time to live in, how exciting this must have been.
I looked for his 1973 Carnegie Hall concert and found this instead. Ishould have been there with any cost! I thought, "There will be a next time." Well, there wasn't.
Tanglewood uncovers the Hood over the Cribs in Ole Hollywood, crying, "The Wood now sheds ,'Whet' is Good as long as only the Lovely & The Lonely Knave really stood Up On The Understood, The Baby Breather in the Brotherhood & System's Sister Hood the Call of The Wild Child, "Bravo in The Promised Land with 'No Strife Wife Life of The Free & The Home of The Rave Crave of The Really Royally Brave on The Band's Stand of The Stave, never a Slave to The Salve Valve while Playing in The Young-Yang Gang Big Bang Band!
Genius stuff.. Annoying when some people just don't get it
Jack de Johnette on drums!
Great drummer who spent only very little time with Miles, so - a rarity!
Saw this lineup same year (sans Chick) at Shelly's Manhole in Hollywood. This was my coming of age jazz.
C'est du jazz libre,à l'état pure,fantastique.
Miles Davis at Tanglewood?!?! Why can’t they have top modern acts like this nowadays lol
Incredible
The BEST, ever.
I think Miles lost something special when Holland left.
And it's a treat getting to hear and see Bill Graham at the end of the video.
Amazing Chanel

Tunes after tunes! Master Davis...RIP!
Questa superlativa performance elettrica a Tanglewood fu eseguita appena dodici giorni prima della più nota esibizione di 38’ al famosissimo festival che si tenne all’Isola di Wight🔝
Miles taught me the groovy act of smoking great cigars. The trumpet gave birth to Miles. The best.
Artists of the future.
If you don't have the time for all of this...drop in at 38:20. You'll be glad you did. Has a touch of Masakela...Gary's shirt is coming back into fashion. Those labels and those companies are all gone...serious collector items now.
sclogse1 I do hear the Masekela; I hear what you're saying
Superb performance from all!!! ;-)
I appreciate his transformation, but the 50s Miles Davis will always be my favourite. I will reserve my comments for the 70s Miles Davis!
Omg, I love the way he holds the horn!
Everyone in the audience should be holding a braid of garlic ,a crusifix and a wooden stake cause Miles is the true prince of darkness !
before the deluge of amazing great great drummers that we've seen and heard into this century...there was jack and likewise wit de bass there was mr davio holland my main man
I love miles davis and that quintent!
AMAZING!!
Puissant du debut a la fin.
heaven!!! this Team is just perfect :-)
Sanctuary the snow is melting in New York state in the spring of 1970
Bird, Miles and Trane: The Trinity.
Holy Trinity
Cromatic scales a lot by Miles like 1984 when I was in 2 concerts in Pori Jazz. His style, his great music!
This band should have been called the "Wild Bunch". I saw this concert on VHS before youtube around 20 years ago (this is how we used to get our fusion videos young folks). Love the upgade. Oh and by the way, Kieth is a fool! Love the concert! Sick
best of the best!!
Jack DeJohnette is so relaxed but on some wild shit, an admirable amount of nature talent within him and all those on that stage.
After they go into Spanish Key and Miles finishes his solo, Dejohnette looks at Jarrett expecting , wanting him to solo, but Bartz just starts soloing without even giving it a thought that some other musician, (much more skilled than he) might want to solo. So Miles steps in solos again and signals the keyboradists to mix it up and it certainly gets interesting!
Nice to see Carlos at the stage curtain freaking out.
DEEP JUJU!!!❤
Miles Davis is intense. His earlier work was about how experimental musicians were at the end of their career. But he just kept going.
What the fuck are you talking about? End of their careers?! SOMEBODY GET THIS stupid Mutherfucker OUTTA HERE!
Keep his money, too.
Airto Moreira incluiu uma cuíca brasileira no acompanhamento.
Incrivel como sempre tem um brasileiro em projetos de sucesso no exterior
🙏
I love Jack DeJohnette! He’s the man.
Look eg 5:50 to notice how rarely we can see aq m music group in such positioning on stage, like a pack of warriors or sth
like driving somewhere with keyboard player at the s. wheel
Is that Santana listening to the gig from backstage at 43:00?!
Yes, Miles Davis was the support for Santana at this show.
@42:59 with Carlos Santana in the spotlight. sweetness
and right behind Carlos is Bill Graham
is that a sonor teardrop Jack's playin??? This is the world ending in sound and vision, 1970.
Jack's playing Hollywood Meazzi drums here.
Yep. I've saw other pics where he had the front head on, and for sure Hollywoods.....these kits bring insane money these days
@@mikefields4136 I tried selling a set...10-15 years ago..not much interest!
Shame i was just over a year old when this took place, i would have loved to have gone.
What u aint got no time machine 🤨
0:46 love the guy playing the Slipknot head
fantastic post bitches brew's performance!
3:42
This is where they got the Jack Johnson cover from
I saw a young man wearing that photo on a t-shirt at a Tool concert. I was very impressed.
