Miles Davis
Walkin'
OJC / Craft
Pulling together a couple of Prestige 10”. The twenty-eight-year-old with Horace, Lucky, JJ, and Dave Schildkraut. (You remember Dave.)
Mono LP from Music On Vinyl.
‘A transcendental new music,’ wrote Lester Bangs, ‘which flushes categories away and, while using musical devices from all styles and cultures, is defined mainly by its deep emotion and unaffected originality.’
His neglected 1970 masterpiece.
The first side brings into focus the best things about Bitches Brew, with lethal menace; the second lays out a blueprint for Ambient and Fourth World.
Hotly recommended.
Fourth and last of the classic quintet albums with Shorter, Hancock, Carter and Williams. Mostly written by Herbie and Wayne Shorter — a valediction to hard bop, without the old-school machismo.

‘One of the dozen albums that anyone interested in the outer limits should own, or be owned by. Because it cleaves closest of Miles’ masterworks to funk groove and rock impact (Davis was trying to reach out to a young black audience), it’s easy for the jazz novice to get into. But once you’re into it, it’ll take you as far out as anything Davis (or anybody else) ever recorded’ (Simon Reynolds).
‘The first hip-hop/house/drum’n'bass/breakbeat album I’d ever heard’ (Greg Tate).

With Keith Jarrett, Jack DeJohnette, John McLaughlin, Airto, Gary Bartz, Wayne Shorter — different lineups around 1970 — running jazz into Sly and JB and way out the other side.

The evening session — after Agharta — live in Osaka. Free, thick, staggering voodoo funk. From 1975 — the last new music Miles would release for six years.
An afternoon in Osaka, 1975. With an On The Corner kind of gang — Sonny Fortune, Pete Cosey, Reggie Lucas, Michael Henderson, Al Foster and Mtume. ‘The greatest electric funk-rock jazz record ever made’ (Allmusic).
LP from Music On Vinyl.
From 1957… with Monk and Milt Jackson on the title-track; Rollins and Horace Silver on the rest.
Spanning 1955 to 1970. The eighteen-minute closer — a giddying version of a David Crosby song — is essential, out of this world. If you don’t know it, you should spring for this CD without hesitation.
