If you loved "Big Fun", "Pangea" , "Dark Magus" or "On The Corner" then you will adore this 1972 Concert from New York's Philharmonic Hall. With a huge ode to "On The Corner" this is Miles doing the funk psych Electronic fusion thing. Complete with electric piano, synthesizers, electric sitars this album is a stunning live 2 CD set that will change your life ! Very trippy and very grooovy, In Concert carries all the Davis-isms with huge sonic breakouts, trumpets a plenty fed thru a wah-wah pedal and tons of deep dark rhythms and beats. This is one of only a few live snippets from the funk era-Miles Davis. Clearly here he has totally moved away from the jazz influences and totally goes into the depths of the beats.
If you are not really all that familiar with Miles Davis post jazz era then this may not be the best place (or easiest) to start with but this IS an album you must hear.
