Miles Davis - Calypso Frelimo (1974) FT James Mtume, Dave Liebman, Al Foster

Описание: Calypso Frelimo, by Miles Davis
A side-long track from the 1974 album Get Up with It, a collection of unreleased material that Davis had recorded between 1970 and 1974. This track was recorded at Columbia Studio E, New York City in September 17, 1973. Miles Davis plays an electric trumpet with wah-wah pedal here. He wrote in his autobiography: “By now I was using the wah-wah on my trumpet all the time so I could get closer to that voice Jimi had when he used a wah-wah on his guitar. I had always played trumpet like a guitar and the wah-wah just made the sound closer.” Miles was enamored with the effect, talking about it to other musicians. Carlos Santana remembers: “A bunch of us from both groups were together at a 5th Avenue hotel—it was Keith Jarrett, Michael Shrieve, and I in the elevator, holding it and waiting on Miles. When Miles finally got on the elevator, and when we were going up Miles looked at me and out of nowhere said, ‘You gotta get you a fuckin’ wah-wah—I got one.’ He wasn’t taking any argument.”

Musicians on this track:
Miles Davis — electric trumpet with wah-wah pedal, organ
Dave Liebman — alto flute
Reggie Lucas — electric guitar
Dominique Gaumont — electric guitar
Michael Henderson — bass guitar
Al Foster — drums
James Mtume — percussion
