Love 70s Miles. RIP Pete Cosey, that guy never got the recognition he deserved.

The supernaturally gifted Michael Henderson; one of the few bass players who along with Tina Weymouth can repeat one very simple phrase over & over for an eternity, with each repetition sounding fresh as though they were playing it for the very first time! We're in the Miles Davis musical Twilight Zone.

Pete Cosey turns into a space monster here.  We always knew he would.

Now THIS is Miles Davis! He wore many hats and played with many greats, but the early 70's electric psychedelic Miles was my favorite. People with  bad taste and short attention spans might not get it, but the folks who allow it to soak in will be rewarded a thousand times over. I always say Open your Mind and your Heart will follow. That certainly applies here..

40 years later and people still don't get it...Miles was looking so far into the future then...

The illest bass tone I’ve ever heard. So brooding and menacing

dear Mtume, have a good trip and I got this and lot more from you:
Mtume said this about playing with Miles:
Sessions would be like this: You get a call, you come in. You never knew what was going to happen that day. That was part of the joy, and fear. We would lay out the track, we play through the basic structure. One thing he never did was rehearse too much. I remember one time I had raised the point when I first got in the band. I said, “Miles, we need to rehearse more.” He told me, “I pay you every night to rehearse on stage.” It took me a minute to digest that, but then I knew what he meant. He never liked to overheat the soup. When it was just about there, that’s when he would stop the rehearsal and when you do a take.

Miles, genius selecting his sidemen. Al Foster, Michael Henderson and the rest, what a world of sounds.

Mike Tucker is right:  "Whoever said that nothing lasts forever never listened to Miles Davis."  Truth.  True glory of Miles Davis lives forever.  Glory.

Lieb. That opening flute solo. He's been a consummate MFer his entire career.

THAT BASS.. seeing this live must have been a complete mind fuck

Lets all show some love to James Mtume on congas.... he's in his element fresh off ''The Strata East'' Mothership .This lineup is a match made up in Heaven ... and Hell  !!!!

My mother's middle name was Effie, an extraction of Ife, a royal Nigerian title. This is a tribute to her, from me, via Miles.

I'm not sure where you'll find music this hip.       This era of Mile's is among the greatest of the 20th century........BY FAR.

RIP Michael Henderson. ✌🏼+ ❤

Hard to believe it was 52 years ago

Perché piace tanto? Perché è una banda di fuoriclasse capeggiati da un genio come Miles.
SPETTACOLARE!

"The fact is, Miles Davis is never going to play anything banal."
--Max Roach in Musician Player & Listener magazine, March 1982

tht guitar dude went thru the wormhole

I love this! This makes Bitches Brew seem a bit stiff if anything. There is something menacing about this. I love that Miles cues the track by playing that bass line on the organ as well.
