It's on every new vinyl releases page in the world. What a nice record! This is from the collection I wrote about a couple of weeks ago.  Howard McGhee is such a gem on this album. Quote

The studio tracks with Iggy Pop work better than I thought they would. Lonnie also bows out on side 4 with a reprise of the title track from ‘Move Your Hand’. Pressing quality is fine to my ears.

Yeah, I also saw the band play the material in July 1985. I liked that bass and drums ostinato at the beginning, it is the same you have on "Jack Johnson" and it´s played also as "Theme from Jack Johnson" on Agharta. That´s really some great stuff. Well I remember it was the first time Miles didn´t wear a hat or a cap, he had his long hair slicked back, a bit like a modern version of Liszt Ferenc. I had heard Miss Morrisine, a great tune already the year before in Wiesen. Sure, the girl friends I had then, liked "Time after Time" and "Human Nature" most. They also played a great live version of keybordist´s Bob Irvin III "Code M.D." from the before 1984 album "Decoy". I saw Miles again in November 1985, they played about the same stuff plus some then unknown compositions that might have been on "Rubber Band" which was not out then. And then they had Mike Stern back again on guitar. I liked Stern more than Scofield, who played more in a laid back manner (ok his style ) . And there was a female percussionist also. 12 hours ago, sidewinder said: UK CBS 2LP I like it mostly for the live stuff with the band with Keith in it. Funny to say, I didn´t associate Keith with his long solo albums, those Koln Concerts and stuff, but really got exited on that Fender Rhodes- Yamaha Organ combination. That band was in Viena in 1971. I was too young but my older friends (about 1955 born while I´m 1959 born) still talk with enthusiasm about that band. Few years later a rich kid, who had two pianos at home told me he is a big Keith Jarrett fan and asked me to come by and let´s do some 2 piano stuff á la Keith Jarrett. I said, well Keith Jarrett, than I better get a cab and bring my Fender Rhodes and the then new little Yamaha synthie . It took me some time to learn that the new Keith was totally else than what I had heard first...... Quote
sidewinder Posted February 24, 2022 Report Posted February 24, 2022 (edited) Two things I recall from that 1985 RFH concert are that they played Irvine’s ‘Ms Morrisine’ as well as Jacko’s ‘Human Nature’ and that Miles spent quite a lot of time playing organ. Oh - and mustn’t forget that I parked for free right outside the RFH building on a meter spot. Wish we could go back to that ! Edited February 24, 2022 by sidewinder Quote

Oh, I don´t remember now, if Miles played so much organ at that time. He played both trumpet and organ at eastertime 1983 with the band that had both Sco and Stern, and thanks God still Al Foster. About parking at Miles concerts in summer 1985. I went to the festival, and as I usually did for years on several festivals that were in rural areas, I drove my car into a field lane, put a military camping bed and sleeping sack, and sleep under the sky in the fresh air. Shortly after I had fallen asleep I heard some voices screaming and still more asleep than wake I hear "oh here is a dead cadaver lying", I opened my eys, and said what you doin ? and saw two young country guys with two really scared girls. One of the guys said to me: "Man you scared us, we thought you dead. They went home from some province disco and took the shorter way home , thru the lane.... Quote

clifford_thornton Posted February 24, 2022 Report Posted February 24, 2022 They look like puffed fish crackers. You can get them from vendors in Chinatown in NY among many other places. Good record too. Quote
mjazzg Posted February 24, 2022 Report Posted February 24, 2022 Yes, agree the cover photo's not the most enticing. The music's great though, to my ears On to this now, nicer cover Umezu-Harada Duo - Danke [Next Wave, Japan 1981] I've been tracking down more Umezu recordings recently, he's good Quote
