What an amazing amount of albums. I love the artwork on most of his albums. The Miles & Monk must be amazing. I didn't realize he was married to Cicely Tyson. I don't have that many Davis albums but of what I have, In A Silent Way is my favorite. You have a great mofi collection of his work. I love those.
I also bought my first Miles album when I was 16 in 72. It was On The Corner. I loved it. There have been some great albums that I returned because I didn’t like them on first listen. Those albums that Miles did to get out of the Prestege contract are my favorites by him other than the electric period.Those 70’s twofers are really good.
Mazzy, thanks for the great overview of The Dark Prince.The story of Miles continues to unfold, no one can present his complete body of work or explain his influence on music and culture.I also think he was a wonderful painter but that is just another aspect of this Creative Giant.Vote for Miles.
I didn't think On The Corner was going to make the cut and was delighted to see it as its a big favourite of mine.. These showcase videos are amazing Mazzy, keep them coming..
Hi Mazzy --- watched this entire video thinking "Where's On The Corner?" and at the 40-minute mark, there it is! I really enjoy these types of videos; it made me break out my own Miles' stuff and curse the memories of the Miles' vinyl I saw over the years that I SHOULD have picked up! -- thanks again.
This was timely, as I was just cataloging my Miles so everything was fresh in mind. My Miles starts with the Columbia albums, so seeing his involvement in the 1940 & 1950s was interesting. Thanks, Chris
Great video mazzy I saw that PBS special last week for the first time and this is a great follow-up ! two hours went by so fast and I learned a lot and this is also very informative thank you.
Norman wow great Miles vinyl you have you did an excellent breakdown of each album he has so much stuff he started with Bird and Diz all the way to the early 90 when he fused jazz with hip hop with Doo Bop Song I'm with you he important not only to jazz but music he had so many groups the groups tell many stories which is definitely cool to hear. That awesome you saw him I was definitely too young to have saw him. I missing his Prestige period badly I have non i have most of his Columbia a couple from the 80s Mazzy this was outstanding watched this twice. I'm watch his film Birth of the Cool this weekend have you saw Miles Davis the Story I bet you have. Lovellandrew
I’ve always thought that “Jack Johnson” is a masterpiece. John McLaughlin’s guitar work is phenomenal. Not to mention the whole social implications. Nice overview!
It was actually Gill Evans who wrote / arranged the introduction to So What. It was Bill Evans who wrote Blue In Green despite the credit to miles. I point this out not to pick holes in the vid, as it’s nice to see some decent miles coverage. Nice collection. No 80s or perhaps u got all that on CD? Defo recommend completing the mofi collection. Porgy in particular is a stunning cut. Like the vids man! Stay safe in Seattle!
Mazz, Just a coincidence but Criterion Movie Productions recent edition of "Elevator to the Gallows" ( "Ascenseur pour l'échafaud") the cover looks like a Blue Note album cover!! Coincidence ??? Nice work Mazz!!! Larry
Miles is the one I keep going back to more than any artist. Prestige years are a must and IMO the AP 200 gram 33s are awesome. Favorite Miles solo from Miles/Monk, first solo on Straight No Chaser......channels Pops and almost gives you History of Jazz in one solo. I know it’s dated, but so hip. I like this kinder, gentler Mazzy. The approach reminds me of Belushi from Animal House......”Grab a Brew, Dont cost nothing” Peace
Miles...what a wealth of music. Probably the most confusing, overwhelming catalogue. Would hate to be a Miles completist..LOL. Thanks for doing it. My next Miles purchase is On The Corner.
Well SOB I missed those Prestige box sets from RSD, son of a gun. I have his complete Prestige on CD, I’m sure you also have that box set. Great point on Davis not being able to keep up with that fast pace of BeBop. He is the king of phrasing and of Less is More. He is by far my favorite artist, his music just strikes a chord with me. I was thinking about doing one of these also but just have not gone around to it. I don’t have many of those comps which was cool to see. I just got some more of his bootleg series in last week.
Vinyl Community- Steve Carlson thanks Steve. Yes he’s obviously High on my list. So much to explore. Seek on the Birth of the Cool doc. I’ve been wanting g to showcase his work for awhile now. The bed thing is you realize the records you are missing 🤠🤓😎🐈
@@henryhill92 Mine too. Bought it new and damn near played the grooves off, especially the disk w/ ‘Go Ahead John’ and ‘Lonely Fire’ on Sides 3 & 4. Also worth repeated listens is the subsequent ‘Get Up With It’ (also 1974) and the lush ‘He Loved Him Madly.’
Just getting into jazz after listening to mainly rock and blues all my life(I’m 47 by the way). Need to get some of the albums you’ve shown here as I only have kind of blue at the moment
Still playing catch up on your earlier videos..lol.....gotta luv the Miles.....I personally think Sketches of Spain is better than Kinda Blue but that's just me. I love Bitch's Brew and need to pick up more of what I would call his completely bonkers period.. 😂
When I bought my Ensoniq ESQ1 keyboard, it had just come out.(so early the model was metal instead of plastic) It was a big deal with it's sequencer. I got a call from Guitar center saying Patrick Gleeson wanted to borrow it. I may have owned it a week. I said no. I still have it.
Love it when someone shows a whole collection of Miles' stuff, of course now with the Maslovian twist. Very Cool. Teo is pronounced "Tea-oh", not "Tay-oh". You can even hear Miles say his name at the end of some takes.
Thanks for the correction. I know I’ve heard that before but started saying it the other way and it clicked. I’ll have to hire voice over dubbers to correct it. 🤓😘🤠
Nice collection; you didn't miss much--the only two I expected to see but didn't were Nefertiti and Kilimanjaro--and maybe I missed them... Marcus didn't just play on Tutu, he wrote most of it. Great overview.
This is a feast! Question for you, as a person new to the world of vinyl and looking for rarities, like most Milford Graves albums, for example….Where does one turn? On eBay a typical MG album is around $200 on average all the way up to 1000. Where are better places to look and what, in your opinion, is too much to spend on a record? As a newbie I feel like I have audiophile taste on an in-between budget. Thoughts?
Mazzy, didn’t Miles open for The Steve Miller Band at one of the Fillmore’s ? And I don’t think he anything nice to say about the experience. I vaguely remember reading that he didn’t think they were very good musicians.
Back at the shop...................Burns, good director. Doubt I'll watch this one, Miles such a nasty chap it seems. But a few good Lp's, we have to concede.

Record prices can be crazy. Abs in terms on how much any of us should spend really depends on so many things. Don’t go crazy or beyond your means. Dig at stores, antique shop and goodwill. DISCOGS is great but can get confusing with all the various pressings of each records. But lots of options there.

The hat, the cardigan, the Miles collection. Mazzy is one cool dude.
I have several Mofi pressings of his music. Great musician!

Thanks Lovell, There are a few more I'm keeping an eye out for ... can't have enough Miles.
Amazing. Beautiful collection. And brilliant background music from Bird.
Fantastic collection man! Would love to see your miles box sets
Nice video. Love Miles.
I’ve always thought that “Jack Johnson” is a masterpiece. John McLaughlin’s guitar work is phenomenal. Not to mention the whole social implications. Nice overview!
Yeah thats such a great solid album in so many ways
It was actually Gill Evans who wrote / arranged the introduction to So What. It was Bill Evans who wrote Blue In Green despite the credit to miles.

What a great collection ¡¡ The Miles Davis in Tokyo was recorded with Sam Rivers in sax
Those Prestige RSD sets of his early 10” are killer. Never seen those. Wow.
Yes they are amongst my very fave RSD sets.
Norman Maslov I just picked up a Jefferson Airplane record. All your fault.
Mazz, Just a coincidence but Criterion Movie Productions recent edition of "Elevator to the Gallows" ( "Ascenseur pour l'échafaud") the cover looks like a Blue Note album cover!! Coincidence ???
Nice work Mazz!!!

On The Corner is my favorite Miles album of ALL TIME!!!

In A Silent Way.... new to it, cant turn it off.
Miles...what a wealth of music. Probably the most confusing, overwhelming catalogue. Would hate to be a Miles completist..LOL. Thanks for doing it. My next Miles purchase is On The Corner.
Glen Kellaway a very confusing catalog when you expand out of the Columbia years.
@@mazzysmusic try Phil Woods. Now that is a confusing catalog. Love you stuff btw

great video as usual. Big Fun is a pretty great trippy album by him...have you heard that?
I heard it years ago. It's been along time...
My favourite Miles album, and Lonely Fire is my favourite piece

He has a wide and varied catalog.
@@mazzysmusic looking at getting in a silent way and Nefertiti
Enjoyed it a lot
On The Corner is one of the best,More Sleigh Bell please !

I don't think that I have even heard the Prestige recordings in all these years!
The Fisher Price Adventure People Ranger named Scott called, he wants his hat back.
Saw him at The Paramount there in Seattle.

@@mazzysmusic Ha! Yeah, a minor point. The music is the most important thing.
Bill's Box Of Sound You say Potato, I say Potata.......
Nice collection; you didn't miss much--the only two I expected to see but didn't were Nefertiti and Kilimanjaro--and maybe I missed them... Marcus didn't just play on Tutu, he wrote most of it. Great overview.
Joe Murphy I showed Nefertiti but not Killmamjaro which is on the way to me.
so many albums, so little time
Robert Quinn all the time in the world 🌟

Do you know if FACETS was ever released on CD? I've been looking and waiting for years . . .
DIRECTIONS is a fantastic compilation LP, as is CIRCLE IN THE ROUND.
Lee Konitz died quite recently, in case you didn't know.
goals
LIVE EVIL is still the baddest album ever made.
Star People, We Want Miles, Filles de Kilimanjaro, Decoy. . . Another four amazing albums! When does it end? ;-)
Did you mention you made a Weather Report discussion video? I looked on your channel but couldn't find it?
No I did not.
@@mazzysmusic I seem to remember you quoting yourself that Joe Zawinul composed Birdland on Heavy Weather LP?
@@monsterjazzlicks yes I did. I think that was a jazz ear Candy video.
I'll have a look for that one . . .
Wow! Don't you just love collectors who collect everything out of love and care and know the history overlooked in all the official accounts.
Have you checked out the Deep Brew sessions of Bitches Brew? I think you would find then very interesting. Both volumes are uploaded here on You Tube.
Damn that's crazy
Just found a Miles & Monk vinyl from Seoul Korea in original soft sleeve. Eun Ha Su records. Any idea $. Cant find anywhere
Let's not forget "We Want Miles", "Pangaea", and "Miles! Miles! Miles! Live In Japan '81 (cd only)".
I never heard of the Legrand Jazz LP?!
32:35 Herbaceous Hancock
Mazzy, didn’t Miles open for The Steve Miller Band at one of the Fillmore’s ? And I don’t think he anything nice to say about the experience. I vaguely remember reading that he didn’t think they were very good musicians.
What does mofi mean, please?
Mobile Fidelity. It’s an audiophile reissue label.
@@mazzysmusic cheers!
