Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3

Read "Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3" reviewed by Ian Patterson

by Ian Patterson

It would have been inconceivable for Miles Davis in his post-sabbatical, 1980s reincarnation to have been billed as “an extra added attraction" on any festival or concert hall billing, but that's how it was when the trumpeter--already a legend--played his first ever gigs at the Filmore East, supporting Neil Young & Crazy Horse and the Steve ...

Read "Miles Davis: Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Intensely intoxicating as much as it is wholly hypnotic, Miles Davis Live at the Fillmore becomes increasingly so through the course of its four compact discs.

Sonny Rollins: Montreal, 1982

Back in 1982, Sonny Rollins appeared at the Montreal Jazz Festival and brought the house down. The quality of Sonny's ideas and blowing here is truly remarkable.

Read "Miles at the Fillmore - Miles Davis 1970: The Bootleg Series Vol. 3" reviewed by John Kelman

By the time Bitches Brew (Columbia) was released in April, 1970—and despite receiving a 5-star review in Downbeat Magazine—trumpeter Miles Davis was already under fire from mainstream jazz critics as having “sold out," despite the densely constructed, improvisationally unfettered music being as unapproachable to an audience looking for accessible music as anything he'd done with his ...
