We couldn't get tickets for him, so we hid in the grandstand during the afternoon concert. That's how we managed to see Miles Davis in the evening.

[@dylangatenby9928]

Love this stuff!! What good concerts Miles put on in the 80’s. He actually wasn’t really into fusion that much anymore but delved deeper into the jazz pop and almost more of a funk 😮🎉❤

[@WandaSueOQuinn]

Reminds me of that morning when Dugar was teaching Cudin Miles how to blow some piece with the bulb in his trumpet.😅❤😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😊

[@WandaSueOQuinn]

I think 🤔 I had made three years old already. Captain Dugar had to keep me sometimes. We were working 💪 for THE RED CROSS ❌️. So, sometimes my big brother Captain Dugar and/or my Daddy took me out on dates. And that's how I got to go a lot of places - like CAFE ROUGE!😅🎉😂😊 THANKS ❤❤SUZE'Q

Miles Davis dawal nam powiew wolności w tamtych latach socjalizmu.

[@mariuszmichazielinski8109]

Byłem tam. Miałem 21 lat. Cudownie, że są takie nagrania. W 88 też byłem:-) I w zasadzie jestem tam dalej....

Zazdroszcze niezmiernie, niestety nie było mnie nawet na świecie...

[@jankapon9995]

Great music. It's funny they are advertising Lot Polish Airlines and Lee Jeans. These times almost all of us were too poor to fly or get pair of Lee jeans. I'm glad Miles music is still with us, and that nowadays Poland is much more European country than in 80's. One thing did not changed here. The appeciation of good live music.

[@linadenoblee9126]

I was there, I was 20, and got the signature of Bill Evans, Darryl Jones and Mino Cinelu!!! But I catch it finally in these days...It was very special political situation in our countries: Polad and Czechoslovakia, I am from Prague. Some of my friend couldn t go there, because all members of Jazz section secret police get out from the train on the borders! We have GOOD LUCK, go by car - across DDR. I like it so much - this video. Thank you for this post!

[@ferencdobak9960]

Ja tez; I´m from Hungary with slovakian (Liptova) and South tirolian roots living nowadays in northern Lappland :) Thos times in Warshow there was a popular pin with the text: " This is not America, only it looks like it is" Be good, pozdravicku :)

[@miguelcastano3210]

Great!!

[@selfmedve]

I got a signature also .Miles dedicated his album after the concert :)

[@txa1265]

So cool - I was lucky to see him a few times in the 80s as well - 1982 (Boston Common with Pat Metheny group) had Bill Evans but Mike Stern (not very lucid that night). 1984 at Newport Jazz had this lineup but with Bob Berg and was absolutely on fire. Great memories!

[@linadenoblee9126]

@@selfmedve WOW! I am not sure, if I have also Miles´s signature...We had been waiting so long time and I think, somebody took my programme and bring to him behind the curtain - do you remeber this moment? Did he come out??? Thank´s

[@dyhrchristoffer]

There will never be one like the gentleman in front . Everything he did while he was here was marvelous. And there will never be one to put together in the short amount of time what miles Davis did while he was on this planet period ?

[@michaeljoseph3528]

Miles, whom I've idolized. since I was 16 (now 73), has never let us down. As a percussionist, Mino Cinelu was a great gift.

[@tomaszdebowski2294]

JJ życia!!! Miałem 18 lat, nie miałem gdzie mieszkać, wiec przez 2 dni spałem na Dworcu Wschodnim razem z innymi Miłymi Ludźmi. Potem ktoś mnie przygarnął. Miles był wtedy Bogiem! Teraz mając 54 lata mogę razem z nimi wyśpiewać każdą nutę... A skład zespołu ... giganci!!!! T&D

[@adamwojciechowicz2036]

Ale on jest Bogiem nadal.. !! Kto w historii muzyki przewrócił wszystko do góry nogami 5 czy 6 razy ?! Genialny prekursor wszystkiego, co działo się w muzyce w ostatnich mniej więcej 70 latach. Wtedy nie dorosłem do Jego muzyki, mimo że mam 2 lata więcej. Zazdroszczę. Pozdrawiam.

[@linadenoblee9126]

Ahoj! Mně bylo 20 let. Dorazili jsme dobrodružně z Prahy přes DDR, protože Čechy tehdy do Varšavy nepouštěli přes hranice! Mám velmi podobné zážitky, nakonec jsme skoro vůbec nespali...Byla dost zima, venku to foukalo, ale uvnitř sálu to vřelo a byli jsme svědky něčeho zcela mimořádného! Nikdy na to nezapomenu a díky polským přátelům, že se jim to podařilo! Eva

[@adamwojciechowicz2036]

@@1renatab1 Właśnie. Do Milesa Davisa trzeba dojrzeć pod każdym względem; nabrać dystansu. A czy dojrzało więcej rodaków, po koncertach Davisa w Polsce w 1983 i "88 ? Wierzę, że tak.

Big BIg Miles, and all his Amazing Bands.....never forgotten💥💥💥❤💯

[@1noowy]

Koncert - diament. Dziękuję! W tamtym czasie po stanie wojennym to musiało być jak zesłanie Ducha Świętego lub wizyta kosmitów, z naciskiem na to pierwsze, biorąc pod uwagę fakt że Papież był Polakiem. The concert - a rare gem. Thank you! In that time (just after the end of communist regime's State of War) it must have been like the Descent of the Holy Spirit or Marsians landing on the Earth, with a emphasise of the first option, since the Pope was Polish! :)

[@garymillstein3677]

This is probably the best quality video I've ever seen from Poland. The sound is on point, the video editing is tight, they even get good shots of Al Foster. It has an Antibes like warmth to it.

[@Jumo55]

one of the favorite countries to play for miles davis. he also played in 85 in Japan very motivated.

[@bobbob-dg1kt]

So good. Obviously an electric band, but wow, they sound Electric. Amazing performance, best 80's Miles gig I've heard so far.

[@ewamacioszczyk4326]

Byłam na tym koncercie i na całym festiwalu. Siedziałam obok Niemena i... swojej wielkiej miłości. Davis dla mnie był wstrząsem, choć jeszcze wówczas nie wiedziałam, że był to początek końca pewnego etapu w moim całym życiu. Nie wątpliwie Miles Davis zasiał w moich komóreczkach ziarno, które zmusiło mnie do powrotu jeszcze raz na to miejsce. Dziś wiem, że gdybym nie znalazła się na tym koncercie wśród tysięcy ludzi, tych zwykłych zjadaczy chleba, muzyków, różnej maści artystów, których znałam tylko z radia i telewizji i rządzących wówczas krajem ludzi /mówię o widowni/, moje życie zakończyłoby się definitywnie.

[@sujanpradhan6837]

Miles can turn everyone into calm, cool, fast and steady...and u can express highest form of sound. what a Man...RIP>M .boom shiva...

[@HarmoActive]

What an amazing show! It was extraordinary for Miles to play 3 encores, he must have been quite impressed by the enthusiastic reception he and his band received from the crowd in Warsaw.

[@sawomirmanikowski6742]

He was impressed indeed as he says in his autobiography :)

[@mickdevlin]

One of the strangest bands Miles ever put together. But? Talk about getting up on the one....."I don't pay you to play well. I pay you to make mistakes". RIP Miles. Like Bird and Dizzy, we're still trying to work this stuff out!

[@nickwerczak8050]

I was there too. The atmosphere was electric. You can feel that Miles loved it. He was also treated like a king in Poland. He made some requests before coming that were not easy to fullfill in a then communist country, example: 17 bottles of Perrier. I heard they had someone go to the west to buy them. Miles later let Urbaniak play one solo on Tutu and I was always wondering if it was because of the memories he had

[@jaeldeepbassplayer]

Darrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyl ! Yeah !

[@1renatab1]

Słucham jak zamurowana. Boski Miles.

[@maciek5457]

Mistrzostwo i magia! A indywidualne popisy muzyków jeszcze dobitniej pokazują z jakimi wspaniałymi grajkami mamy do czynienia. Polecam mocno!

[@Clank9996]

1:16:29 hits directly into heart... what i love about Miles is that he knows exact moment to play from his soul, and with feelings, emotions.. that always surprises and amazes me. Nowadays, even famous and succesful musicians play more to "show off" with their velocity and tecnique instead of bringing emotions out through notes. Well atleast we learn from it, my goal is to be able to transfer all my emotions when i play, to make people cry or to make them laugh, through music. Miles lives forever !

[@istvanvincze1696]

-simply mind blowing music!

[@michaelhanlon6118]

What dynamics!!!!!! That's an art in it's self!!!!!!

[@maredicorsica]

Stunning Bill Evans solo on Star People

[@dupajasio4801]

And this boys and girls how it's done. 40 years ago (2023) a miracle in Warsaw happened. As far as I know only very selected and lucky people got a ticket. There was 5 minutes for photographers allowed or else. No encores etc. I listened to the concert on the radio It was obvious the atmosphere was incredibly electric You could hear it. I recorded that one on my cassette deck and listened many times. Now in Canada I'm sure it's here somewhere. Saw Miles in NY but it was nowhere near this one. Hmm, do we have guys like that nowadays ? Just efing out of this world.

[@hundredcaws]

such a good gig for John

I thought “Bashing Al” Foster was gone by then. I saw him half dozen times in the Davis band back in the early ‘70s. Most interesting soloist: John Scofield.

[@couchslouch13]

he worked with Miles on most albums from 1972 'On the Corner' through to 1985 'You're Under Arrest' and then once again in 1989, he was also one of the few people to keep in contact with Miles during his 'break' 1976-1980, even working a session with Miles in 1978. Love Al Foster!
