Late 60's/Early 70's Electric Miles Davis--Any Fans?

TheOwl	Date: June 19, 2007 @ 3:42 PM Anyone here a fan of Miles Davis' late 60's and early 70's electric albums? These were the sort of albums that I tried to limke for years but somehow just couldn't, but FINALLY about 3 years ago, they opened themselves up to me in amazing ways. So anyhoo, anyone here have favorites, things you like or dislike about them? Discuss--------------------

It's quite mystical as Miles brings in world music, musicians and instruments to add an Indian flavour to his eclectic electric mix!

tsand20175	Date: June 19, 2007 @ 5:11 PM Bitches Brew I think is from that era....the definitive Miles in my opinion....Also the Jack Johnson album is a classic of mine. I wasn't into Miles back then either. In fact, I went to an Issac Hayes concert and Miles was the opening act....couldn't wait till he was done so I could see Issac....boy, was I musically stupid. Everytime I think about who could have been playing with Miles that night...... :bangshead:

SimonWaldram	Date: June 19, 2007 @ 8:09 PM In a Silent Way, Bitches Brew and Jack Johnson all have great stuff on them, I think (esp BB). I've heard that Get Up With It is very good, but I've not got it. I've been thinking of getting On the Corner. I hear so many different things about that one I don't even know what to except from it.
officernarc	Date: June 20, 2007 @ 12:57 AM "on the corner" is kind of an interesting album, and it's definitely one of the more "interesting" entries into the miles davis catalogue, and honestly, i don't think i would really recommend it. personally, i find it to be decent background music if you're having a party, but to just sit down and listen to the record for your own personal enjoyment and really try to actually listen to it is kind of mind-numbing. the thing about it is that it was recorded with loops, and personally, even though i like the record, i just find that it's really repetitive. so, unless you're like me, and can pick it up for under 5 bucks, i would really suggest you pass on it. or if you want, i can send you the mp3's.
