They _definitely_ don't make'm like this no more. A masterpiece. Fun fact; years and years later, at a more jazzy gig in Amsterdam (2010) i met Al Foster backstage. By accident. A chitchat 'bout the 'We want Miles' tour I saw in Stockholm back in -82.. And thereafter, out of the blue, Al gave me the warmest Bear Hug ever. Made me inspired DeLuxe when it comes to drumming. Unforgettable!
Now THIS is Miles Davis! He wore many hats and played with many greats, but the early 70's electric psychedelic Miles was my favorite. People with bad taste and short attention spans might not get it, but the folks who allow it to soak in will be rewarded a thousand times over. I always say Open your Mind and your Heart will follow. That certainly applies here..
Before a Santana show they played live Miles Davis performances over the PA,that put the hook in me
@Eddie Pienkowski - its a statement... a really good statement!
The kingdom of heaven is within
@@warrenbiker what year it was?
@@symbolkid I think it was '89 maybe '90. It was electric Miles performances from the '70s.
Perché piace tanto? Perché è una banda di fuoriclasse capeggiati da un genio come Miles.
SPETTACOLARE!
The supernaturally gifted Michael Henderson; one of the few bass players who along with Tina Weymouth can repeat one very simple phrase over & over for an eternity, with each repetition sounding fresh as though they were playing it for the very first time! We're in the Miles Davis musical Twilight Zone.
True. But Miles also told them to do that... look at Dave & Marcus
@@milo8796 Marcus? Do you mean Lucas?
@@basheermuhammad7757 No, Miller! Dave Holland and Marcus Miller, two bass players who played with Miles.
Wow wait until you hear davie 504 , that’s supernaturally gifted , best wishes !
Tina Weymouth was the bassist for the "Talking Heads"...for those who may not know. She started playing the bass the day she joined that band. Her lack of music theory kept her bass lines simple...tribal...and hypnotic. Michael Henderson knew his theory for sure...but he was still hypnotic...
The illest bass tone I’ve ever heard. So brooding and menacing
Nothing else quite like an Acoustic 360 amplifier. Here he's detuning the E string.
Brooding is the perfect description. Thank you for that.
My mother's middle name was Effie, an extraction of Ife, a royal Nigerian title. This is a tribute to her, from me, via Miles.
11:55
According to the Yoruba worldview, Ife is the place of origin of all humankind and is therefore of particular religious and political importance. Here the deities Odudua and Obatala, under instruction from the creator Olodumare, began the creation of the world.

I thought that Ife ment love in Yoruba. At least that's what my Nigerian neighbors told me
Love is also Ife, in Yoruba language. It is spelt same way, as Ife, the town where the world originated.
@@xandertolias4206same spelling but Yoruba is a tonal language like Chinese so when intoned differently the same spelling means a totally different word.
dear Mtume, have a good trip and I got this and lot more from you:
Mtume said this about playing with Miles:
Sessions would be like this: You get a call, you come in. You never knew what was going to happen that day. That was part of the joy, and fear. We would lay out the track, we play through the basic structure. One thing he never did was rehearse too much. I remember one time I had raised the point when I first got in the band. I said, “Miles, we need to rehearse more.” He told me, “I pay you every night to rehearse on stage.” It took me a minute to digest that, but then I knew what he meant. He never liked to overheat the soup. When it was just about there, that’s when he would stop the rehearsal and when you do a take.
rip mtume......
Love 70s Miles. RIP Pete Cosey, that guy never got the recognition he deserved.
That's my second cousin! Tell me about it! The real musicians know my cuzz!
@@abiyah-dovepstein8834That's so cool
I know what you mean, but he most certainly did.. from me.. RIP, and thanks!
I'm not sure where you'll find music this hip. This era of Mile's is among the greatest of the 20th century........BY FAR.
And beyond.
The track named after Mtume's daughter Ife... what a badass James was and his contribution to this era of Miles Davis is immense.
Pete Cosey turns into a space monster here. We always knew he would.
40 years later and people still don't get it...Miles was looking so far into the future then...
artstarr2011 this video has 93k views. i think its been got
cleft turnip aka A Jonathan Lewis amen
justin briber has 4 million,.....exactly WHATS been got????????
!!!!!!!!!!
try my music... Miles is a big influence as is Sun Ra and microtonalism...
Pete Cosey & Reggie Lucas. My favorite two man guitar team. Absolutely Brilliant.
You are right…they are the best ever. They always complemented each other perfectly. Nothing can touch them.
"The fact is, Miles Davis is never going to play anything banal."
--Max Roach in Musician Player & Listener magazine, March 1982
I still remember with pleasure at this concert, it was a great experience.
WOW, lucky many!
Can I touch you, Sir?
Your my hero..
12 string Vox with a Bigsby! thru hs effects = atonal, pixelated synthlike tone
and Reggie playing deluxe Tele (but no headstockis not Fender)THICKEST tone here
outta site
Man!TO-THINK ABOUT THOSE TIMES AND THE MUSIC MICHAEL HENDERSON IS MY HERO AL NEVER GROOVES BETTER THAN WITH MILES! DAVE LIEBMAN SO POWERFULL!!!! MORE MUSICAL NUANCES MORE EXECUTIONS (FOR ALL INSTRUMENTS!! MORE!!!PLAY!!!! MORE-----FUN!!!!!!!
Sounds to me...doubled strings are tuned in an interval...not unison
I love this! This makes Bitches Brew seem a bit stiff if anything. There is something menacing about this. I love that Miles cues the track by playing that bass line on the organ as well.
There are so many layers to this. This tune alone could be a book. Chapter upon chapter of words. Ooph!
Mike Tucker is right: "Whoever said that nothing lasts forever never listened to Miles Davis." Truth. True glory of Miles Davis lives forever. Glory.
Miles genius was that he was able transcend the dualistic nature of 'good' and 'bad' with respect to his music.
THAT BASS.. seeing this live must have been a complete mind fuck
Why the darn profanity? Are you low class?
@@donaldkoester9096 no, I'm not. I have 5 Gibson guitars and a recording studio. But thanks for the interest
@@TheSecondNature I don't care how many guitars you have dude...Keep it cool... Just not sure why the YOUNG DUDES/DUDETTES have to use the F word for o apparent reason.. to get attention methinks? Not my style .
@@donaldkoester9096 oh, so your style is more like criticizing strangers on the internet and being a political correctness paladin! awesome!
@@TheSecondNature As if preferring non guttural f words is some kind of radical position...How very upside down youandmany of your contemporaries are! PROFANITY IS NEVER COOL... Get it chump? SHOW SOME CLASS not just fall in with the rappers and low class knuckle draggers etc. Is that to much to ask?We used to have STANDARDS !
People still don’t get this fucking band. Amazing shit.
The legend Pete Cosey............. RIP , Michael Henderson on bass can't get any better.
Of course, now, 2022,RIP Michael!
Honestly on this…..I’m not buying it………
The fact that the guitar player on this also produced Borderline for Madonna is evidence that Miles' influence of music and culture quite literally has no limitations.
Of course you're referring to Mr. Reggie Lucas. Also, he is of two main guitarists, actually, three during the time period of 1974, ie. Dominique Gamount, is added to Reggie Lucas & Pete Cosey. Whom also played with Muddy Waters on "Electric Mud".
@@bmuhamad yes indeed sir,
Pete Cosey produced The Monkees.
Egg on your face😂
Pete Cosey was the really big guy back then.. And Mr. Sonny Fortune on sax and flute. Ones of a kind
tht guitar dude went thru the wormhole
+dan g Well described. It's not of this earth, not even close. The only thing on earth that could promote sonic dimensions such as this would be a super collider. I think it should be tried.
Reggie Lucas, R.I. P.
That's the late Pete Cousy taking the extended guitar solo.
Dude's soloing on a 12-string. Damn...
You should know that he recorded with Chuck Berry on his early recordings, and uncredited. And many others.
Ethereal. Magnificent. Truth is that no words do justice to this music. Rest in peace, Miles Davis. Whoever says that nothing lasts forever never listened to Miles Davis.
You're right. This does last forever and you'll keep coming back. This band at this moment had just about made it as far as you can go.
Miles, genius selecting his sidemen. Al Foster, Michael Henderson and the rest, what a world of sounds.
vero !!!
RIP Michael Henderson. ✌🏼+ ❤
If anyone is curious about the 12 string tuning, the higher strings are tuned to the minor 3rd of the lower strings
To the squares it may seem like noise but the big ears know the 1 is where all the hip swing
I don't like squares...
Friggin' giant of the guitar. One of those guys who is so far ahead of his time very few people realized how great he was. I did. Playing a 12 string with feedback and effects is one thing, but that microtonal tuning is way out. Only Miles could see how that would work in his music. Greatest Miles band ever.
Yeah, I saw Pete Cosey at the original NYC KNITTING FACTORY in the ‘80s. I think he replaced Bill Frisell in the band that included Melvin Gibbs and Ronald Shannon Jackson. In any case, Cosey was definitely a great and original player. And his work with Miles Davis was stunning.
''Hands Down'' !!!!!!!
@@romemiller5349 'Hands Up' !!! !!!!!
Pete Cosey. Amazingly underrated giant from his time
It’s because of videos like this RUclips needs a ❤️ option.
Big love for Al Foster especially in this era and his stuff he did on Star People.
The Penguin Guide to jazz called Miles' rhythm section from this period "The greatest rhythm section ever in Jazz."
That was also said about miles first and second quintets,and coltranes
Out of everyone here, only Liebman and Foster are still living.
Miles sounds in great shape. I saw this band on the Los Angeles leg of this tour with Ms. Nina Simone and The Last Poets.
Holy Crap what a line up!!!!
Dave Libeman Playing This Flute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An alto flute.
Miles Davis has a way of bringing you into to that timeless, ever changing psychedelic space, scary and beautiful
On Feb. 18, 1969, at CBS' 30th Street Studio in New York, Miles Davis definitively went in the direction that he'd already been leaning toward for a year or so: full electricity.

All of this beauty in music and Pete Cosey on that guitar. Mtume on percussion, Michael Henderson on bass, Al Foster on drums. Check it.
My fave Cosey solo ever.
I was thinking just the opposite: no concept, no strong lines, simply jerking around. Plenty better solos by Cosey. Love the music as a whole though.
my favorite Casey moment is when tmusic surrounding is slow and calm one yet he pulls out one of the most intense blues solos that one can play in that occasion
Poststructuralist Hero l agree. I like Pete Cosey. That solo sounded like shit. Even Miles looked at him like, what the fuck. I can play that solo on my guitar. He wasn't playing crisp note, just tripping his fingers over the guitar
Huh ???
I agree he really found some unique melodies
miles was deep in music, music from stars
Bassline is outstanding. What a pace!
hot damn all for the last 2 months its been nothing but live miles from 1969 to 1975 for me, gets me thru my days
dunno who i love better on the sax and flute in this era liebman or sonny fortune
that's my kind of 2 months! my girlfriend gets so irritated when i go thru phases where i just listen to miles' fusion period but i don't care :>)
they were both superb...I saw Liebman in 72 and Fortune's try out gig 74 with the band, both at Paul's Mall Boston. I do love Fortune's tenor power on Agharta. I once attended a class Liebman gave, super nice guy. He described practicing 6-8 hours a day for years. Pete Cosey had ribbons in his beard, looked like a pirate, sat behind his effect table in front of me. Miles' organ playing was painfully loud. Reggie Lucas had a Morley Phasor that seemed to give chords dimension.
i'm going thru just the same obsessive trip 69 - 75 -fantastic - thanks for uploading - symbolkid
@@jonathanwobesky9507 "Fortune's try out gig 74 with the band, both at Paul's Mall Boston." I was at that gig. It was a tryout? Damn.
I have several live albums of Miles’ band in this era, I haven’t heard Peter Cosey actually use 12 strings on that Vox guitar. What a trippy tone.
Pete Cosey had so much in his sonic arsenal. The recordings that were released only reveal a small sliver of it.
Yes😮truly the greatest improv live band our ears and heart took in. Cosey a guitar god, next to Fripp ZAPPA.
What a band! Great sound by '73 Miles band! Love it!
An amazing creation and performance ❤️😳
News of James Mtume's passing yesterday brought me here.....and here I'll stay.
I never knew he played with Miles.
This is amazing!!!
D.Liebmen soprano sax tone is absolutely insane
I watch this everyday and learn something new every time
Always liked Miles on the organ
RIGHT? he played these alien riffs that i only wished a mf questioned because i had a gun....
Lets all show some love to James Mtume on congas.... he's in his element fresh off ''The Strata East'' Mothership .This lineup is a match made up in Heaven ... and Hell !!!!
OMG!!! Astounding!! Words fail, this is so good….
This is something that comes along so rarely and most people don't get it, but for that do get it, amazing! What a mind bender, so much better than the garbage served up by corporate publishers. This is gold! 😊
I was 14 when this came out , man , max Julian coats , top ten Adidas, Levi jeans, big radios , these kids nowadays think they doing something, WE ARE THE ONES THAT INVITED THIS SHIT , BEST TIME TO BE A TEENAGER. JOE USHER, EASTSIDE OF DETROIT MICHIGAN
No argument here, if culture could go back to this pronto that’d be great
Is this where Talking Heads got the bass riff for Crosseyed and Painless?
Likely!
Just really heard this for the first time.
Filmed on my 3rd birthday 👍👍👍👍
The 'Magic World' that music can conjure, Miles the hip magician ;-)
I am not sure people realise artistically speaking how high the level is
Fun fact: Ten years after this Reggie Lucas produced songs for Madonna's first album.
This is so god damn good.
Thank Betti Davis for this part of miles (a true muse)
Mr. Cosey's Vox 10-string guitar speaks volumes.
Great posting !! Very good sound and picture quality !!
Even more enjoyable when listening to the Big Fun album as a whole.
this is about music going wherever it leads the musicians, NOT the other way around.......
Oh yes, I love the strange guitar sound on this one, very rare, can't find it on any live recording. It was constant member change in the group, a couple of years earlier he had Keith Jarret and Chic Corea on keyboards but they where replaced by guitars and a new sound. I think I like the later guitar based sound better, but I like the earlier sound too, check out the "Cellar Door Sessions"...
RIP Pete Cosey. Man, you were good.
great live!!!
Miles Davis' groups were always jam session work teams...
so very sad to hear of Pete Cosey's passing - he was a giant...
This is cool and very enjoyable. Weird guitar and other stuff. Pretty relaxing and engaging
Miles is meraviglioso ieri e sempre!
A ship passing through the Night........
Groovin' in the electric jungle...Mystic Vibes
The Miles experience
Thx
quel pied ! quelle émotion ! complètement orgasmique 🤩😘
(Pertaining to the first chord played on the organ at 00:10).
I could be wrong, but if memory serves, that is official code for WE ARE TRIPPIN BALLS right now.
Code meant for... the audience?
@@professorcensored3647 Code for, ummm.... whoever knew the code. 🙂
I saw this band in Boston w/ Sonny Fortune. This is wilder.
I modeled my bass playing on Mike Henderson.
👍🏾👍🏾
Ron Carter, what are you doing here? You’re in my second favorite Miles group but this is my favorite one
@@CriticalTime53 What am I doing here? Simply enjoying the works of my fellow musicians :)
@@RonCarterBassist you, Tony Williams, Herbie, Wayne Shorter and Miles are inspirations, along with Pete Cosey and Henderson of this group from Miles. Very nice to see you on a late electric period video
@@CriticalTime53 Thank you very much.
Youre cool cat ronnie
this music fucking soothes me when im in a dark place...
Absolutely. Feels like this music understands, and brings out the beauty in the darkness.
Miles Davis destroyed jazz, no act could follow this. He and Coleman blew it up.
As did Sonny Ra.
Before them both....
Yeah I was going to add Sun Ra too... Miles was famously critical of other musicans, particularly Coleman... but, to my knowledge he remained silent about Sun Ra. I've always thought of Miles as the Magus (magician) and Sun Ra as the preserver of Jazz.
thanks god !!!
Miles is the man. But Coltrane explored space and time like no other musician before or since, including the classical masters.
Look out CAN here comes Miles
Espectacular 😍😍😍👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Gracias
Dave Libeman Playing This Soprano Saxophone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
free flowing funk. Damn this is so good.

The biggest brands in Vienna include Ottakringer, Stiegl, Zipfer and Gösser, but you find plenty of small and private breweries and specialty beers, too, none of which should disappoint the discerning beer palate.
Kaiser Pilsner is know for its high quality, rich taste and deep golden colour. This beer is brewed with a selected mixture of barley and hops, which are fermented and matured slowly in accordance with the German tradition of brewing, giving the beer the taste of a real pilsner.

MEN INITIATE INAMORATO YOUR MUSIC ARE TOMORROW'S UNKNOWN--KNOWN---LIFE .............I LOVE TOMORROW
Awesome tuning Pete's got on that 12 string!
@JustinDhuffman Me too! I love how he's got the string pairs tuned unconventionally, in 3rds instead of octaves.
tell all yer Hipster friends. this is pure.
Damn this is just down right funky..... It's Miles & Co. enough said.....
Lieb. That opening flute solo. He's been a consummate MFer his entire career.
MILES DAVIS IS
SIMPLY THE
GREATEST
OF ALL
TIME 🎉 !
WITHOUT
ANY DOUBT!

The Boyz loved playing with him, your in his vortex, God is playing every note of every instrument
I've been listening for a week to these musicians through Miles Davies original albums On the Corner, Big Fun, and Get up with it. McLaughlin isn't playing in this concert, although a reference with Miles Davies from 1969 till 1974. I like Regie Lucas a lot too. Although I knew this concert I came here now to check out Pete Cosey more in detail: his guitar playing in He Loved Him Madly (from Miles Davies Get Up With It) is quite sophisticated, sober, but rare. Miles electric phase has many interesting details. In the time of cd's I had about 50 Miles Davies albums. I still have them, of course. I like all Miles Davies phases. The three records I mentioned in the beginning are a whole different story: it's my favorite music to relax. It's nice to see how things change when the line up differs.
12th day in quarentine. 1/4 of acid just for have a bit o fun. type ife live for a puerto rico group and i found this. amazing............................
Miles at his peak, awesome stuff here.
Very gosh darn cool.
The rhythm, it's the jamming rhythm
Another reupload that has been deleted by Google. Thank you.
I need to listen to this high as a kite
This will get you high as a kite w/o any shit. Magnificent.
Love Pete Cosey
