I'm listening to "Live Evil" right now. I love this album, but it is not for everybody.

A Tribute to Jack Johnson


Surprised it took that long for someone else to say it. "Right Off" is probably my top Davis song, and the intro to it is bar none my favorite few minutes of his music. The legend goes that :

quote:

John McLaughlin, awaiting Miles's arrival, began improvising riffs on his guitar, and was shortly joined by Michael Henderson and Billy Cobham. Meanwhile, the producers brought in Herbie Hancock, who had been passing through the building on unrelated business, to play the Farfisa organ. Miles arrived at last and began his solo at about 2:19 on the first track


this all happened on the fly and lead to one of jazz fusion's most endearing peformances

Sweet tidbit. Jack Johnson is one of the greatest fusion albums ever recorded. McLaughlin and Miles are all over this album. If you haven't already, check out the box set as it gives insight into the creative process of Miles and his amazing ensemble.
