BITCHES BREW -  

 Detailed Description Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 95/500! 

Super-Deluxe 40th Anniversary Collector's Edition 12" x 12" Slipcase Box Set! 

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 yet would become Miles Davis' first RIAA gold album.

Originally released in April of 1970, Bitches Brew was informed by and reflective of the music that Miles heard being produced in the late '60s by Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, James Brown, Santana, Marvin Gaye and others, as well as the Beatles' post-production editing pyrotechnics. This 40th Anniversary Collector's Edition is 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, earning a place of #94 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time. The album's gatefold cover introducing the late Mati Klarwein's iconic art served as a gateway to music that presented a seismic breakthrough in jazz/rock/funk/R&B.

Three August 1969 recording sessions yielded Bitches Brew's six tracks - with 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) - undergoing post-production in the form of handmade razor and tape splice loops by Miles' long-time producer Teo Macero.

"In February 1969, Davis recorded In a Silent Way, a bold step into ambient funk and electric futurism that inspired the trumpeter to go further out at the sessions for Bitches Brew that August. Davis wanted, he said, "the best damn rock & roll band in the world," to connect jazz with the forward motion of Jimi Hendrix and Sly Stone. Davis' band was superbad (Joe Zawinul, John McLaughlin, Chick Corea, Wayne Shorter, etc.). But the word fusion was never big enough to describe the visceral thrill of these explosive studio explorations and the pioneering tape-edit wizardry of producer Teo Macero, arguably the original Chemical Brother." - www.rollingstone.com 

This Super Deluxe Edition takes full advantage of the LP-sized 12x12 box set format, offering:
• 2 CDs with original 94-plus minutes of music plus six bonus tracks
• A third CD of previously unissued performance at Tanglewood, August 1970, with Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette, Airto Moreira and Gary Bartz
• DVD of previously unissued performance in Copenhagen, November 1969, with Wayne Shorter, Corea, Holland and DeJohnette
• Audiophile 180g vinyl double-LP gatefold replication of original album
• 52 page Full-color 12"x12" book with 500 word essay by journalist-author-producer-musician Greg Tate; producer's notes by Michael Cuscuna and Richard Seidel (the box's co-producers); and Lenny White interview by author Ashley Kahn. The book features Mati Klarwein's painting Zonked (a psychedelic portrait of Miles Davis' wife, Betty, which also encodes a profile of Miles) on its cover, plus dozens of rare, unpublished photographs and record label memos.
• Memorabilia envelope containing a reproduction of the Davis Rolling Stone cover story from December 1969, previously unseen correspondence from Teo Macero's archives, reproductions of three Fillmore West concert tickets from April 1970, high quality photograph prints, and a foldout poster of Miles Davis.

"Bitches Brew should be a mandatory requirement, not even for musical school but just as a discussion. What do people get when they hear this music? Like Beethoven's 5th Symphony... it's a body of work that needs and must be visited." - Carlos Santana

Kind Of Blue: 50th Anniversary Collector's Edition ~ Francis Davis, album notes writer (Miles Davis) 

Deluxe 50th Anniversary Collector's Edition

Talk about a Collector's Edition. This one's got it all. First, a CD of the original album, remastered with bonus tracks. Next, another CD of the first live session performed by the group (May 26, 1958), plus The Den Haag Concert and The Zurich Concert (over 60 minutes of music). Then, a DVD featuring an expanded Making Of Kind Of Blue documentary, as well as the historic television program The Sound Of Miles Davis, filmed in 1959. And finally, a premium, 180-gram BLUE vinyl companion record. Plus, a hardcover book with additional memorabilia. 

Originally recorded in 1959, Kind Of Blue is widely regarded as the definitive jazz album, a universally acknowledged standard of excellence. It is also the best-selling jazz album of all time. Representing the pinnacle of modal jazz, Miles Davis brought together John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Cannonball Adderley, Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb and assembled one of the greatest bands in history, spontaneously inventing a new musical style and language in the process. 

This release comes in conjunction with a major Miles Davis biopic theatrical release scheduled for 2009, starring Academy Award winner Don Cheadle as Miles Davis.

Miles Davis At Newport 1955-1975; The Bootleg Series 4 180g Import 8LP Box Set

Out Of Print! 

180g Audiophile Vinyl!
8LP Box Set! Unreleased material!


Miles Davis' 20-year association as an artist at impresario George Wein's renowned Newport Jazz Festival is a thriving tradition that is celebrated with the release of Miles Davis At Newport 1955-1975: The Bootleg Series Vol. 4. The 8-LP box set, comprised of live performances by Miles' stellar band lineups in 1955, 1958, 1966, 1967, 1969, 1971, 1973, and 1975, in Newport, Rhode Island, New York City, Berlin, and Switzerland.

The 4th Volume in the critically-acclaimed Miles Davis Bootleg Series, contains hours of previously unreleased material. From Miles' debut performance at NJF in 1955 (a hastily arranged jam session featuring Thelonious Monk and Gerry Mulligan, that immediately led to the trumpeter's Columbia signing), to his final public performance of the '70s in 1975, the box set traces the ascendance of Miles' music as the Jazz superstar he has become known to be.

The full-length concert performances alone of Miles' famed "Kind Of Blue" Sextet (with Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb), and second great quintet in '66 and '67 (with Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams) represent templates that reverberate in jazz and popular music to this day.
