😂🤣 👍🏻 same here ... hysterical laughter ... it seems to release the trapped energy of all the embarrassing music context moments that have accumulated actively and passively in a long musician's life
true jazz by masters way out ahead of the pack, no question. We won't be able to truly understand the harmonic complexity here until many years from now.
It's not just the fast, manic material that has an edge - slower, quieter numbers are mercurial, not just in how they shift melodies and chords, but how the voicing and phrasing never settles into a comfortable groove. This is music that demands attention, never taking predictable paths or easy choices. Its greatest triumph is that it masks this adventurousness within music that is warm and accessible - it just never acts that way. No matter how accessible this is, what's so utterly brilliant about it is that the group never brings it forth to the audience. They're playing for each other, pushing and prodding each other in an effort to discover new territory. As such, this crackles with vitality, sounding fresh decades after its release.
I've been searching online for nearly a decade for this tasty bootleg. Thanks to you scholars, I can finally show my jazz history students the missing link to the Miles Davis legacy.
My hat is off to the trumpet player who covered the Miles part. Everything he played matched up with the fingerings. Exquisite attention to detail there. I can’t speak for any other instrument being a trumpet player. But that was legitimately hilarious!
Hilarious! Loved the bass lick at 1:06. Could not stop laughing -- tears in the eyes, coughing, the whole bit. Thank you for 5 minutes and 53 seconds of gut busting chortles!
the guy with the giant *S* around his neck is the obvious bandleader. this is 5 minutes & 54 seconds of jazz heaven! someday, 1500 years in the future, somebody will figure out how to download this and they will realize that this New American Century was the very best of times. oh by the way; @3:40 is an excerpt from "The Good The Bad and The Ugly"
😂😂😂😂 I met Don Alias years ago, after Jaco’s Word Of Mouth concert, he was very nice. Mike Stern passed out and I helped carry him to a car Time flies… RIP
That “Kind of blew”
You are a genuine wit!
“So What?“ ;)
you win
Bravo!
Ha ha ha ha
Nothing is funnier to me than these music shreds. I literally laugh myself into an asthma attack.

Lucky you, I am already dead.....
The first 30 seconds Sound like guitar center on a Friday night
Ha hahahaha!!!
The melancholy melody of the sax juxtaposed with the ensuing band ensemble that hits you at 4:20 is astounding.
this has to be his most avant garde performance of all. thanks for finding this rare gem.

I would say that the comfortable groove part begins at 1:57

So much better than the album version.

One of the most talented shreds 0_0
3:42.... Priceless!!
and at the end too, his last note after the song ended
The way the drummer looks when he's playing that ride is so funny. xD
Blasphemy! ...and the funniest shred ever. The bar has been raised.
This is just incredibly well done.
Don Alias happiness face adds a lot of credibility,also the dances by bass and guitar.
Hilarious! Loved the bass lick at 1:06. Could not stop laughing -- tears in the eyes, coughing, the whole bit. Thank you for 5 minutes and 53 seconds of gut busting chortles!
That was funny as hell when he did that!!!!
1:03 The bass popping has me rolling on the floor laughing every time! 😂😂😊😂🤣
Or the final blow to the flute at the very end, which only then completes the story of the song :)
I wet myself overtime I watch this. The bass is awesome and when the flute played the good the bad and the ugly, that was me ended! Genius!
This is some seriously funny shit. Someone put so much effort into this, more than Miles himself. Love the flute...
I've heard many different shreds but i think this one is either "the best/worst" 😂 Just hearing the first notes made me crack down!
Amazingly funny and witty, has obviously taken a great deal of work and knowhow. Bravi!
Priceless. Sooooo funny. I'm sat here crying with laughter. Anybody seen the Chick Corea Shreds? Genius.
I laughed to tears...hahahahah.....Great job, man!!!
This is the funniest thing I have seen in my life
Soundtrack of my life :)
The bongo player has me in stitches! Miles has never played better!
So ahead of it's time, true avant-garde free-form jazz! Awesome find, thanks for sharing :)
i watch this once a year or so and everytime something else would kill me. this time THIS sax player LMAO
3:14
He really dubbed in a cough lmao
That last note from 'Kenny Garrett' , Genius! :)
The real Kenny G
Pure Genius !!
Spiritual. Truly a musical gem!
The guy who make this shred is a genius !! :D
those bongo hits...bwahaha
The shreds videos with hand drums always have a little bit of a comedy edge.
Love this . Youre a genius . Now a total fan of miles davis
This is some serious David Lynch shit
I thought this was actual jazz for longer than I will admit
This is what plays in my head when I mix too much weed and alcohol...
Love you, guys!!! You made my day
Free Reggae Jazz Fusion. These guys can Bop!
HAHAHA THE LAST NOTE I JUST CAN'T
that bass riff 1:14 hahaha
XDDD HAHAHAHA!!!
AHAHAHAHAH OH MY GOD
jajajaja jajajaja
Wow, love the jammin between Miles and that flautist, or is it flutist.
Paul Bonney Flautist.
thought it was Kenny
Paul Bonney and the rhythm section during
Some lovely jazz miles, really loved that Ab11/C#7/Gm6/E at 0:55, dont hear that one that often
I am not going to lie. This is what Don Cherry and Ornet Coleman sound like to me except this is more accessible.
The time and effort put into this 😂😂😂
Davis was so full of himself. This is funny 🥴🤣🤣🤣
syncs up well
the guy with the giant *S* around his neck is the obvious bandleader.
this is 5 minutes & 54 seconds of jazz heaven!
someday, 1500 years in the future, somebody will figure out how to download this
and they will realize that this New American Century was the very best of times.
oh by the way; @3:40 is an excerpt from "The Good The Bad and The Ugly"
😂😂😂😂
I met Don Alias years ago, after Jaco’s Word Of Mouth concert, he was very nice. Mike Stern passed out and I helped carry him to a car
Time flies…
RIP
Sanborn's hair alone wins.
Haha, the flute who throws Once upon a time in the west at the end of the chorus..
I don't listen Miles Davis but now I m listening.
oh shit how i d like to see Miles reaction watching this ....
Hahahaha... I love the Shred series.
piece of art!!
i love shreds amazing music!
Still better than most of the jams I was in
Great job sir! has made me laugh a lot
Mastering all those instruments to achieve that masterpiece
Nothing short of genius.
5:46 has me scream laughing.
Masterpiece!
This has to be a Bitches Brew outtake.
The Ennio riff
It's hilarious.... kinda digging it though.
Haha.. too much man.. the ending is just hilarious.. blib
Wow!! This is really avant garde
I love this guy.....
As a Berklee student I can only hope to transcribe enough solos to play like this one day! #blackheroes
Fantastic. The flute just cracks me up every time he comes in. Did you do this with samples or real instruments?
there's definitely something casio sounding in there
All music should be played this way
THE COUGH at 3:16.
I forwarded it to some people and they believed it it was true 🤣😂
still a great composition
better miles stuff i ever saw
For most people jazz actually sounds like that
hi, welcome to Jazz Club! hahaa, you people are superb
4:20 and everyone's high
5:45 and that last blow to the flute completes the song...
Great Coworker Music. Adding this sht to the playlist hard.
Well… I mean… It is well-known that Miles was able to pick up on any mistake and seamlessly incorporate it in the song.
Went and listened to a real live performance and still thought I was listening to shreds 😅
Brings me back to my high school band class. Except these guys sound better
No one appreciates the bass - the bass really carries this one...!
1:03 great bass
3:46 best solo Sanborn ever played.
That middle part was kinda sick AF though 😂
Magnifique !
Sanborn solo out of this world :)
un accessit au joueur de pipeau! le top du top l'ensemble!
masterpiece :DD love it
Hahaha you took your old flute from the school days.
For those people who don't know what a shred is...that's NOT Miles Davis playing!!!! Great job though!! I laughed more than I should have :))
Quick everyone, downvote this reply! 😂
Lmao the polka.
Kinda sounds like Miles Davis's regular stuff.
That's what I thought! 10/10
Truly different face of Miles D. Who could imagine?! :)
Even better than the original! Shred On! :D
at 0:29 you misregarded one of the holy laws of shreds: THOU SHALL ONLY HEAR PEOPLE WHEN IN PICTURE.
ps: I laughed my ass of. Good job!
Bit late to the party on this one, sounds like senior school music (UK). Thank the Lord there are no glockenspiels.
This is based on Spinal Tap's Jazz Odyssey. Sublime.
