Miles Daviss Bitches Brew is one of the most iconic albums in American music, the preeminent landmark and fertile seedbed of jazzfusion. Fans have been fortunate in the past few years to gain access to Daviss live recordings from this time, when he was working with an ensemble that has come to be known as the Lost Quintet. In this book, jazz historian and musician Bob Gluck explores the performances of this revolutionary groupDaviss first electric bandto illuminate the thinking of one of our rarest geniuses and, by extension, the extraordinary transition in American music that he and his fellow players ushered in.Gluck listens deeply to the uneasy tension between this groups driving rhythmic groove and the sonic and structural openness, surprise, and experimentation they were always pushing toward. There he hearsand outlinesa fascinating web of musical interconnection that brings Daviss funkinflected sensibilities into conversation with the avantgarde worlds that players like Ornette Coleman and John Coltrane were developing. Going on to analyze the littleknown experimental groups Circle and the Revolutionary Ensemble, Gluck traces deep resonances across a commercial gap between the celebrity Miles Davis and his less famous but profoundly innovative peers. The result is a deeply attuned look at a pivotal moment when oncedisparate worlds of American music came together in explosively creative combinations.
