This weeks long overdue Jazz CD Pick of the Week is Miles Davis with the recently released cd titled Bitches Brew Live. This cd was just released a few weeks ago and being a huge fan of Miles Davis and his electric period, this was one I had to pick up! This cd offers previously unreleased tracks recorded in 1969 at the Newport Jazz Festival. These songs were recorded in concert a month before Miles went into the studio to record his fastest selling album of all time, Bitches Brew. In 1970, Miles played at the Isle of Wight Festival in front of 600,000 people and the full set from this concert is here on cd for the first time as well! Oh yeah....Now many were confused when Miles came out with this music because it didn't seem to be jazz or rock. What is this music people and critics wondered? Anyway, judge for yourself (see link). Not for the faint of heart. Check it out and hip up!
