They came from the future played classic science fiction jazz at its finest burning the doors wide open for anyone else interested in electric jazz. "You are welcome" said Miles facing the grave playing his back to heaven.
I agree with U his music is OPEN. But I wonder if he might say "U are welcome." He would like to say, "Hey man, come in if U want. If not, get out of here!!!" Of course, just my imagination.
First introduced to this by an extraordinary young woman when in my early twenties. It is unique, memorable and as fresh today as it was back then. Timeless.
This was a historic concert. Santana was on the same bill, he requested Miles as his opening act. The concert is here on youtube. What a treat for the audience, a double mind fuck!
I suggest putting on the Bitches Brew record, pour a drink and burn a fatty ; its absolutely mindboggling music, light years ahead of it time....dedicate the time to listening to it, you'll be rewarded !
It's cool that you get to see the beginning of the long musical friendship between jack dejohnette and Keith Jarrett. Love their playing towards the end of this video.
One thing I wonder about while listening to the albums and then seeing this live footage is..if they didn't do rehearsals then how the heck could the band remember songs longer then 10 minutes on the albums. Amazing! and these songs are all over the place with each instrument expressing that funk like I never heard before haha.
It sounds to me like they have broad sections, within which they improvise freely, so I don't think it's necessarily that complex to remember. It also helps that they're brilliant musicians who presumably spent a lot of time playing together, and getting a feel for the music and each other.
TimothyBIinks Thank you for your explanation! I see what you mean. It's truly amazing when you hear the album and then see the live version cause the album is an experience you gotta listen all through to really enjoy.
Yes, it's definitely big "broad pieces" stitched with skilled improvisation. That's why jazz (especially Miles) rules; so loose and fluid, but they never lose it. It's like a freight train with a mad conductor...and that conductor is Miles Davis!
+Miles Davis on MV....please remember to post personnel!!!!!!!!!! In this case, I believe: Miles Davis - trumpet; Gary Bartz - soprano and alto sax; Chick Corea - electric piano; Keith Jarrett - organ, electric piano; Dave Holland - electric and acoustic bass; Jack DeJohnette - drums; Airto Moriera - percussion
i consider myself to be pretty open minded when it comes to music but i gotta say this might be some of the challenging noise i've ever heard. i understand the free nature of what this is supposed to be but what exactly am i listening for? the ever constant changes? the noise of baby elephants being harpooned and strangled? this is probably the most psychedelic music i've heard in my life, not exactly listenable, but its very certainly interesting.
You should listen to the full song/album, it takes a couple of listens but theres an intense groove that youll pick up on that moves and grows and breathes like a forest, and once you find that groove you will always be able to ride it
Evan's Gate Don’t worry, I’m a trained musician and jazz pianist. I’ve never much cared for this album myself. I’ve always felt it was a misfire in the usually brilliant career of Miles Davis. You need to put this album in the context of its time. The trend was to eschew formality and structure try to find a path to happiness through free thought. It’s tied in with the drug culture and hippie mentality of the day. In the end, plain and simple, it’s a bunch of direction-less noise. I don’t care what anybody else says, I think this album is a giant waste of time. You’re better off listening to Kind of Blue and Seven Steps to Heaven. It’s often credited with being the first “fusion“ album. However, “fusion“ really didn’t start taking off until the bands that were influenced by this album began to groove a little bit more. Weather report, return to forever, Mahavishnu orchestra, etc.
Well Live Evil had more than one lineup for different tracks, but I think all of the musicians here are featured on at least some of the Live Evil tracks.
I felt this way too but after about my 3rd listen I could feel the grooves. The songs feel almost like entire biomes, jungles, deserts, alive and pulsating. I generally focus in on the rhythm (drums and bass) and find the groove and then from there can appreciate the melody instruments and feel them as characters in the landscape the rhythm creates.
Gary Bartz, he joined when Wayne Shorter left te group right after Bitches brew was recorded. Bartz recorded with pretty much all the greats including McCoy Tyner, Miles, Mingus, Pharoah Sanders and even maintained somewhat of a friendship with John Coltrane. I recommend his albums Another World and Follow The Medicine Man. After his stint with Miles, Bartz had his own funky fusion thing goiing. Ialso highly recommend the recordings of Bartz with Miles called the Cellar Door Sessions
Music that lives and breathes in the moment…beautiful.
Haven't heard this in awhile. Thought I remembered what Bitches Brew sounded like but this blew my doors off all over again

I smoked bud to Bitches Brew with my buddies in college and I was scared shitless.

This is gold.
Love this guy ever since I watched Birth of the Cool!!!
Great album started recording this in Aug 1969 i was only 4 months old when this album was started.
Me too!!! April 8 69!!!
I was born when they were laying it down
Holy crap new old remastered miles footage amazing!!!!!!!!
This was a historic concert. Santana was on the same bill, he requested Miles as his opening act. The concert is here on youtube. What a treat for the audience, a double mind fuck!
it's like seeing Zappa!
Santana should have opened for Miles!😊

Stephen L my kind of guy
I would probably be freaking out lol.
this sounds like Zappa
Listen to it on acid!
thats what i just did, beautiful
The greatest innovator.

Jack and Keith had played together before this in Charles Lloyd's group

play the concept
Benjamin De Cruz - theys just bad as fuck.
my favourite aspects are the background washes of sound colour even more so than the solos !
Miles Davis shreds
Masterpiece
How did i miss this channel. Subscribed immediately. 🎉excellent 👌 👏 👍 🙌 😎
This era is a certain gel for sure!
Timeless'Classic!!!
I get nightmares, but I love it
+Miles Davis on MV....please remember to post personnel!!!!!!!!!!
In this case, I believe: Miles Davis - trumpet; Gary Bartz - soprano and alto sax; Chick Corea - electric piano; Keith Jarrett - organ, electric piano; Dave Holland - electric and acoustic bass; Jack DeJohnette - drums; Airto Moriera - percussion
According to Ian Carr's book, that's the line-up 8/29/1970 in Ile of Wright. Should be same here...
Yeah that's Jack DeJohnette on drums.
DREAM TEAM
Airto is something else!!
Dude on the Sax's jacket is absolutely lovely
U ever find it ?
I would give my left leg to have been at this
but then u wouldnt of been able to stand at it
classic miles . bitches brew was groundbreaking/
I always laugh while listening to this. But still appreciate it ❤
4:13.... Gary Bartz waxing more and more Near Eastern as he snake charms the melody. Wonderful.
Impresionante
At 00.17 .... Hahaha... Where the f... am i... Ah Miles... Thats sick.. Better just play. :D
Se pudesse dar milhões de likes, daria.

well said
Jared Cooper thanks man, I’m sure that’s regurgitated from someone else though but it’s very true
Hence the title of the song...

Keith Jarrett did what is now called "transracial" back then. He is and was 100% white. Playing that sort of game got him gigs.
Are you 100% sure?
i have a question. Is this a LIVE－EVIL band?
Well Live Evil had more than one lineup for different tracks, but I think all of the musicians here are featured on at least some of the Live Evil tracks.
Chick Corea doesn't play in Live-Evil
Chick is on 4 tracks on Live Evil, Little Church, Gemini Double Image, Nem Um Talvez, and Selim.
Guys you don't have to listen to this music, you have to see It.
no hay ni uno sano ahi
This sounds like Feio.
I try to like it but just can’t feel it. Just sorta noise in the end, the whole album. It doesn’t feel like music to me lol

very nice I feel like I'm listening to gorillaz but you know 30 years earlier. miles electric is bad ass.

Bruh moment
Where's Frank Zappa?
Taking notes
who is the sax?
Gary Bartz, he joined when Wayne Shorter left te group right after Bitches brew was recorded.

thank's man, good info
The thing is, is that Miles is the worst thing on this album. Shorter and Maupin are great, as is the drummer John DeJohnette
That's how miles would have it. Always wanted people better than him around him.
