Miles Davis - Miles Runs The Voodoo Down (Live In Copenhagen, 1969)

[@karlkilcrease51]

Between 1969-1970, Miles Davis employed these musicians who went on to form five of the greatest fusion bands: Weather Report, Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul; Mahavishnu Orchestra, John McLaughlin and Billy Cobham; The Headhunters, Herbie Hancock, Bennie Maupin; The Trio of Doom The Tony Williams Lifetime, Tony Williams, John McLaughlin; and Return to Forever, Chick Corea, Lenny White.

that's Jack Dejohnette.

When people talk about great drummers, how is Jack DeJohnette not mentioned more? He’s the perfect bridge from older jazz to the new fusion era. And a fine pianist.

[@tomjensen618]

looked like a very young Chick Corea.

Some of the greatest music ever made. Miles, running. He mostly walked, or trotted elegantly, from time to time he’d break into a run. This is Miles, running. I can’t keep up.

[@Piratebreadstick]

This to me is as far as jazz went. So fresh, so alive, and searching. Further, I think it's Chick's best, hippest, most creative period. A year after he made Now He Sings, Now He Sobs. Just Wow.

[@nathanhunter6201]

Good god, everyone in this band is a genius. Unreal.

[@ismaelbelda1]

[@916Willbrich]

The drummer is always the hardest worker in the band !!!!!!!!!!

[@jimmygallagher3910]

First time I heard the Bitches Brew album it was an instantly transformative adventure. I was mesmerized and transfixed to what was unfolding. Felt like I was listening to music from the far future. Could almost be the soundtrack for Logan's Run. Never felt such a powerful and instant connection with an album. What a visionary.

[@charlesbarry971]

The greatest innovator of all time. Miles Davis was always ahead of all his contemporaries.

[@hjr2450]

Easy to look ahead of your time when you employ young musicians and put your name on their compositions. Blues licks with half the notes cracked or missed over one chord, that's a Miles Davis tune.

[@mistery-ed7900]

A great band leader with 4 other great band leaders equals one incredible group.

[@papasmamas1]

He stops playing at the 0:10 , and then he just thinks, he triest to get into the music, and then just come up with that so well deliverated note...

[@tidepoolbay]

[@guilhermefernandes6633]

Ever since the first time I've heard Miles Davis playing, his total commitment to his art has fascinated me. It is a show of clear and true exercise of creativity every single time that he has his trumpet, a real master of his craft. It is sad that I will never have a chance to see this live, in person.

Very good jazz player. That's all. Players like Beethoven Horowitz and Paganini could easily run Miles outta town.

[@markjbaldwin]

@@buxtehude123 apples and oranges. Miles music was based upon improv rifffing off what the other players were doing. That is the essence of jazz Imo. There may have been moments in Ludwig Vans life when he did improv and roofing with other musicians. Of course we can never know that.

[@kieronjohnson8834]

@@buxtehude123 Beethoven is definitely in the conversation. The other two merely virtuosos. Virtuosity is ten a penny, you gotta have something to say. Miles had something to say. Too many people confuse virtuosity with musicianship. Miles wasn't a technically top drawer trumpeter but he was a once-in-a-lifetime musical innovator. Try looking beyond the fast fingers.

By 69 he had done everything & was on the verge of deciding to make Fusion. This is quiet before that storm.

I always considered Miles in the Sky and In A Silent Way "fusion" predominantly, albeit psychedelic influenced. This era was probably maximum psychedelic fusion era, not that that's even an established genre.

« Ça et le reste, tout en même temps, deux batteurs trois pianistes deux bassistes, l'électricité, le blues, l'Espagne, Stravinsky et Hendrix, ce qui est marrant c'est que les trois batteurs font ce que faisait Tony Williams tout seul, et Wayne Shorter toujours là, le son d'argent, jamais vulgaire, qui dans l'aigu contrepointe la clarinette basse de Maupin, Miles au-dessus, bien sûr, aux intersections froides, toujours cette autorité impeccable, désinvolte, mais sans réplique, la pulsation mousseuse, effervescente, ça bouillonne, on baisse le feu, ça mijote, mais toujours très loin au-dessous, le magma en transe, de temps à autre des projections au visage, des embolies contrôlées par la guitare de McLaughlin, des accords majeurs enclusterisés dans le désastre noir, et les trois pianos électriques qui contredisent la ronde, mais comment est-ce que ça peut fonctionner, tout ça, toute cette merde clapotante et fébrile, bazardée de miasmes projetés aux murs, le ça étouffé enveloppé dans le tout éclaté, arpèges ascendants, tranquilles, suspendus à des bribes de jazz cubiste, aimer le froid, on a découvert le monde, eh, oh, vous entendez, on s'est jeté dedans comme à la rivière, ça nous remonte les couilles au visage, on nage aussi vite qu'on peut, la fille est à moitié nue, elle nous regarde, et toutes les odeurs du passé nous sautent aux tempes, elle nous regarde, on essaie la gamme à l'envers, les tierces plantées dans la chair, bizarre ça marche, elle se penche en avant, elle sourit, c'est chaud, c'est dur, le ventre, les bras, les joues, quarte augmentée, lente, chaude, et la lente progression vers le haut, geste après geste, saturation du cerveau dans le mouillé des cymbales aplaties de plaisir, givre en gerbes, germées de sueur, les muqueuses ça râpe et le Pharaon fantôme dans chaque double-croche, planté au sommet du triangle noir, vide sa vessie… Aucune description de photo disponible. »
