Abstract:
Miles Davis's 'Bitches Brew' is one of the most iconic albums in American music, the preeminent landmark and fertile seedbed of jazz-fusion. Fans have been fortunate in the past few years to gain access to Davis's live recordings from this time, when he was working with an ensemble that has come to be known as the Lost Quintet. Here, jazz historian and musician Bob Gluck explores the performances of this revolutionary group, to illuminate the thinking of one of our rarest geniuses and, by extension, the extraordinary transition in American music that he and his fellow players ushered in
Abstract:
Miles goes electric -- "Bitches brew," in the studio and on the road -- Anthony Braxton : Leroy Jenkins, Musica Elettronica Viva, and the "Peace Church" concert -- Interlude : musical rumblings in Chelsea -- Miles Davis's increasingly electric 1970, and a reflection on his 1971-75 bands -- Circle -- The Revolutionary Ensemble -- Ornette Coleman's children : comparisons and contrasts inside and outside the jazz economy.
