Bitches Brew (40th Anniversary) Miles Davis SKU: 88697755202 Barcode: 886977552021 68.00 £68.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Columbia Released Date: 26th October 2010 Buying Format: Box Set Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Recorded at the end of a tumultuous decade (August 1969), BITCHES BREW reflected the chaos and beauty of a society stretched and stressed to its breaking point. This genre-bending, barrier-smashing double LP of boldly new music with dense textures and lengthy performances broke every rule of commerciality. These 40th ANNIVERSARY EDITIONS are a tribute to both the man who changed the course of jazz (“four or five times,” as he himself once quipped), and the album that virtually single-handedly brought jazz into the commercial rock era, becoming no.94 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time. Originally released in April 1970, BITCHES BREW was informed by the music that Miles heard being produced in the era by Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, James Brown, Santana and Marvin Gaye, as well as the Beatles’ editing pyrotechnics. The original double-LP’s six tracks –“Bitches Brew,” “John McLaughlin,” “Sanctuary,” “Miles Runs the VooDoo Down”, “Pharaoh’s Dance,” and “Spanish Key” – as formulated in the studio by Miles and his long-time producer Teo Macero, presented a seismic breakthrough in jazz/rock funk/R&B. Session personnel included Miles on trumpet, Wayne Shorter (soprano saxophone), Bennie Maupin (bass clarinet), Joe Zawinul (electric piano), Chick Corea (electric piano), John McLaughlin (guitar), Dave Holland (acoustic bass), Harvey Brooks (electric bass), Lenny White (drums), Jack DeJohnette (drums), Don Alias (congas), and Jumma Santos (aka Jim Riley – shaker). Both Anniversary Editions present the music recorded at the principal BITCHES BREW August 1969 recording sessions as well as LIVE PERFORMANCES of some of the same music recorded later, showing further development of the material in the hands of master improvisers. BONUS MATERIAL begins with two newly discovered alternates of “Spanish Key” and “John McLaughlin,” issued here for the first time. Also included are the rare original singles with edited performances of “Miles Runs The Voodoo Down” and “Spanish Key,” plus edits of two pieces recorded three months later, illustrating the evolution of Miles’ sound in just three short months. These edited 45-rpm singles, bound no doubt for radio stations and jukeboxes, were the only nod to traditional marketing that this album received, yet set in motion the discovery of music so prophetic that its eternal impact is still felt today.
