I don’t dabble in jazz too much but I read this article Saturday night (early Sunday morning) and have given the album three listens. To an untrained ear it is quite enjoyable!
Pitchfork Album Review: Miles Davis Get Up With It
I like this Sly Stone quote:
Dark arts arose from his keys, as Sly Stone’s bassist of the time recalled during one coke-fueled night: “[Miles] got on Sly’s organ and started to voice these nine-note, ethereal crazy chords. Sly…came out yelling, ’Who in the fuck is doing that on my organ? Miles, get your motherfucking ass out…Don’t ever play that voodoo shit here.’”
