gentlemonkey Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Live Evil and Jack Johnson both have some of the same tracks.. kick ass era for sure, bitches, on the corner.... lots of great albums. pretty much until he started that 5 year binge in '75. havent gotten into his 80s stuff much. I love some earlier albums, miles smiles in particular, but kind of blue never seems to get old. I guess A Silent Way is my current fave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdness Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 I'm a big fan of "In A Silent Way". Very palatable, but intense and jammy at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradm Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Walkin'/Cookin'/Steamin' w/the miles davis quintet (all of those albums in that Columbia series kick ass)Those albums aren't on Columbia, they're on Prestige. While Miles was signed to Prestige, he went out and signed another deal with Columbia, while still owing Prestige four albums. He took the band (Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones) into the studio and cut four albums in one day (except for one or two tracks recorded later, IIRC).The albums in question are:Relaxin' With The Miles Davis QuintetSteamin' With The Miles Davis QuintetWorkin' With The Miles Davis QuintetCookin' With The Miles Davis Quintetand all are really good. My first Davis album was "Kind Of Blue", and I think it's still my favourite, but I got into the Prestige albums shortly after I got KoB.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelter Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Jack Johnson is up there ... but I think my favourites are Agharta and Pangaea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
