Favorite Miles Davis Album

[Guy Berger]

One of Miles's most visionary albums.

And Teo Macero's !

There's an interesting discussion about Teo's contributions in the book Miles Beyond.

Take my post above only for the early "acoustic" period.

As far as the 1960's are concerned, I'm undecided.

For the later stuff, this is of special significance to me and clearly tops the list:

My favorites are:

1. "At Fillmore East: Live at Fillmore East" (if only we had a full-concert versions)

2. "It's About Time"

These two have the most wild Miles playing - and limitless experimentation. I don't think Miles was as free ever - neither before not after.

3. And well, you can't get away from it, "Kind of Blue".

D.D. -- have you heard any of the European dates from the fall of 1969? They're even more free (in the jazz sense) than the Fillmore dates, though with less electronic mayhem.

I have not checked any Miles' boots out yet.
