Miles Davis died 20 years ago today. Here is a 3x CD set of the Complete Sessions for the excellent "In A Silent Way" album (1969).
Had "Bitches Brew" on in the motor all day & am off to watch his Isle of Wight (1970) performance in a bit...
For fellow fans Herr Pauli & Mike Higgin.
The above blurb was the original text for this post, intended to go ob#n the blog 11 days ago.... I was working it up on the correct date when Virgin pulled the plug on me (yet again.. s'pose I should pay the bill eh ??) Anyway here it is in all its glory...
FIRST OF ALL : skamanch is BACK !!! we miss you.
ReplyDeleteamazing post today.thanx.
i`m a jazz fan and my love starts with miles.
jazz is a wonderful kind of music. i don`t like these hardcore jazz fans- in germany we have a arrogant jazz scene with fucking radio shows-these people build a "ghetto" for jazz music. i couldn`t give a shit of all the terms.
it`s a great music -that`s it !!!
and so many parallels between hendrix,moon,marriott and miles,charlie parker and chet baker. it is the soul and the heart that create music...
cheers
