In Reply to: Miles' Electric Period posted by sisterray on February 28, 2022 at 13:44:22:
Don't care a whit what anyone else thinks but '69-'75 Miles IMO is fantastic.
If he hadn't done anything before or after the music he helped create
in that period it would have guaranteed him legendary status.
Not that I don't love most of the music he made before '69 and a
fair amount after 1980, but that '69-'75 period is quite special.
Miles Davis wasn't the only one blazing trails in that timeframe either.
The floodgates were open to electric innovation and exploration across the
globe, genre boundaries be damned.
The In A Silent Way complete box might have you rethinking that period.
The On The Corner, Bitches Brew and Jack Johnson Boxes are imperative.
The first time I heard Pangea (initially only available as a Japanese import)
I had to sit down.
And I was already seated!
