Miles Davis's Bitches Brew - Pharaho's Dance (1969)

Описание: 고등학교시절 구입한 이앨범을 다시 꺼내어서 들으니 감회가 새롭네요! 음악평론가들이 극찬한 마일즈데이비스의 역작이라서 구입했지만 음악적인 경험의 부족으로 다소 당황했던 앨범입니다. 40년이 지나서 들으니 역시 걸작은 걸작인것 같네요! 마일즈 데이비스와 그의 음악을 돕는 세션멤버들의 화려한 연주들이 언제들어도 좋은것 같습니다. 30년 넘은 턴테이블과 20여년이 지난 음향기기들의 골동품적인 사운드도 잘 어울려지는것 같습니다. 앨범 쟈킷을 꺼내고 조심스럽게 레코드를 턴테이블에 올려놓은 다음 카드리지의 바늘을 레코드에 올려 놓는과정도 레코드를 소장하는 감칠맛을 느낄수 있는것 같습니다.


Bitches Brew is a studio album by American jazz trumpeter, composer, and bandleader Miles Davis. It was recorded from August 19 to 21, 1969, at Columbia's Studio B in New York City and released on March 30, 1970 by Columbia Records. It marked his continuing experimentation with electric instruments that he had featured on his previous record, the critically acclaimed In a Silent Way (1969). With these instruments, such as the electric piano and guitar, Davis departed from traditional jazz rhythms in favour of loose, rock-influenced arrangements based on improvisation. The final tracks were edited and pieced together by producer Teo Macero.

The album initially received a mixed critical and commercial response. Still, it gained momentum and became Davis' highest-charting album on the U.S. Billboard 200, peaking at No. 35. In 1971, it won a Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album.[7] In 1976, it became Davis' first gold album to be certified by the Recording Industry Association of America.[8][9]

In subsequent years, Bitches Brew gained recognition as one of jazz's greatest albums and a progenitor of the jazz-rock genre, as well as a significant influence on rock and '70s crossover musicians.[3] In 1998, Columbia released The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions,[10] a four-disc box set that includes the original album and previously unreleased material. In 2003, the album was certified platinum, reflecting shipments of one million copies.
