Miles Davis played three shows in Japan in 1964.

 

Miles said in his autobiography:

The shit hit the fan when George Coleman left. Tony Williams never liked the way George played, and the direction the band was moving in revolved around Tony… Tony didn’t liked George because George played everything almost perfectly, and Tony didn’t like saxophone players like that. He like musicians who made mistakes, like being out of key. But George just played the chords. He was a hell of a musician… Tony wanted somebody who was reaching for different kinds of things, like Ornette Coleman…

My first choice to replace George was Wayne Shorter, but Art Blakey had made him musical director of the Jazz Messengers and he couldn’t leave then. So we hired Sam Rivers.

We traveled to Tokyo to play some concerts over there. It was my first trip to Japan… We played Tokyo and Osaka. I’ll never forget my arrival in Japan. Flying to Japan is a long-ass flight. So I brought coke and sleeping pills with me and I took both. Then I couldn’t go to sleep so I was drinking, too. When we landed there were all these people to meet us at the airport.

We’re getting off the plane and they’re saying, “Welcome to Japan, Miles Davis,” and I threw up all over everything. But they didn’t miss a beat. They got me some medicine and got me straight and treated me like a king. Man, I had a ball, and I have respected and loved the Japanese people ever since. Beautiful people. They have always treated me great. The concerts were a big success.

**Dime Seeder's Notes**
- 01: There is a big digipop at the very end of the track
- most tracks are not continuous. There is a fade out and in between the first three tracks.
- According to Peter Losins site, these tracks are also not in the correct order.
- Per Peter Losin , All Blues, My Funny Valentine, Joshua, and the Theme were also played on this night but are missing from this source.
- Nice sound, strong playing. A great piece of history. The "Seven Steps To Heaven" alone makes this recording worth a listen. This version is not seekable and is tracked differently that LL137. The sound quality is pretty much identical but LL137 has many drop outs and digi pops that aren't present or at least so prevalent on this version. 

Many Thanks to the original source and everyone at Dime!!

9 Calypso Frelimo (M. Davis) (incomplete) 13:33

 

**Original Notes**
Some versions in circulation have a splice at ca. 4:15, at which point about 0:25 is missing.
Several of the indexes are incorrect on So What: Disc 1: For Dave (21:21); Turnaroundphrase (18:49); Tune in 5 (8:52); Prelude (10:30). Disc 2: Ife (22:01); Turnaroundphrase (16:23); For Dave (18:35); Calypso Frelimo (12:59).

In addition, the first 8:41 of Disc 1 repeats the end of "Calypso Frelimo" from Disc 2. Listen for the splice in Disc 2's "Calypso Frelimo" (at 4:15); the remainder of the tune is grafted onto the beginning of Disc 1's "For Dave."

 

Evidence for the date of this recording is confused. The Davis Septet was originally booked for two nights at the Shaboo Inn: January 24-25 (Thursday-Friday). The former owner of the Shaboo recalls that they didn't play on Thursday because Davis's hairdresser wasn't there -- which leaves January 25 (Friday) as the date. According to Dave Liebman, however, the music is from Saturday -- this is written on the tape Liebman made from the stage. Maybe the group stayed over Saturday night to make up for the missed show on Thursday -- although I haven't found any advertisements or reviews to corroborate this. It's also unclear whether all of this music is from the same night. The master (a single 120-minute tape) contains two extended but incomplete medleys. The second fragment begins on side A of the tape with the band warming up and ends about 9:00 into side B with the incomplete "Calypso Frelimo" listed above. The first fragment begins abruptly in the middle of "For Dave" and concludes with set-ending applause following "Prelude, part 2."
The presence of two versions of "For Dave" suggests that the music here is from more than one night, but this is speculation.
The Davis Septet had a busy road schedule during this period: Shaboo Inn, Willimantic (January 24-26); Massey Hall, Toronto (January 27); Arie Crown Theater, Chicago (February 1); Guthrie Theatre, Minneapolis (February 5); Masonic Auditorium, Detroit (February 10); Keystone Korner, San Francisco (February 12-17); Club Etcetera, Washington (February 24-March 3); Carnegie Hall, New York (March 30); Chicago Auditorium (April 13). I'm sure there are many other dates here, but I'm still looking for ads and reviews.

A review of a Club Etcetera show begins by describing it as "one of the few local engagements [Davis] has not canceled," and goes on to capture nicely the Septet's performance: "His group is improvising, listening to each other, throwing phrases back and forth. They are not working under predefined changes or chord progressions. Neither are they being guided through the performance of a piece they have rehearsed to perfection with the score in front of them. Davis is giving direction to their improvisation, establishing a control that lessens the low points in communication.

"Davis was coaxed into the studio by Larry and Julie Coryell, to whom he had been introduced by his friend Eleana Steinberg. Steinberg's attentions were apparently helping to get Davis off cocaine and alcohol, and he began composing again. These items, on which Davis plays only organ, are just riffs, with the standard flashy excesses of late-1970s fusion. Apparently Davis and/or Steinberg suggested as the title for this tune "Amanaura," but it was copyrighted as "Miss Last Summer."

Comment from Valleybird:
"This is the first tour mixed by Pat Murray. He uses much more artistic reverb in comparsion to Ron which let his mixes sound more spacy when listen to a recording in your living room. The room sound on the drums is from the impact Pat had on the sound... THIS SOUNDS GREAT! DO NOT MISS!"

Originally posted in mp3 May 30, 2018

Miles Davis Quintet - Sindelfingen Stadthalle 
Sindelfingen,  Germany

(the former West Germany)
October 8, 1964

Broadcast Source @flac

**Originally posted as a single set in mp3. Now you have the flac version

of the 2 sets played on that night!!

Hot on the heels of that landmark concert at New York’s Philharmonic Hall in February, The Miles Davis Quintet, with Tony Williams, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock and Ron Carter embarked on a tour of Europe to spread the message.

One of those concerts (of which most were recorded, thank god), was presented by Suddeutsches Rundfunk from the Stadthalle in Sindelfingen on October 8, 1964.

~Original Notes~
LDB Special Series #377 (#703 of the entire series)

Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed!
I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my reward for all the work involved in this project.

DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's is the right way to make me stop sharing music here.

Finally, some notes about yours truly ldb: I have been a fan of live music since I was 9 years old (that is where I attended my very first show, a PFM/De André gig at Milano's Palalido) and my first taped show was at 11 using a crappy portable cassette player with embedded microphone. I become more serious about taping in 1983 when I started to record every show. In 1991 I acquired my first Sony Professional and in 2000 I moved to MiniDisc to finally settle on R-09 in early 2008.

I have seen nearly 500 shows in my career. Most of them were taped but for others bad luck struck and I could not record it: on top of my mind there's a Paul McCartney show in 1993 in Milano where I was caught by the security or Porcupine Tree in Roma in March 1999 when the DAT machine would seem to work but listening back to the tape there would just be a long bunch of silence. Or during a Y.Malmsteen show where I got so annoyed that I left halfway through the show and erased the tape and finally on a PFM show in Milano in 2007 where I had to leave before the encore because the baby-sitter had to leave early that evening. Some other times I was very close not to tape or
had to do it in extremely difficult situations: for the four Peter Gabriel shows at Earls Court in 1987 security was checking tapers with metal detector; at the David Gilmour comeback show in London in 2001 at RFH I had the security guy sitting next to me but I managed to tape the show without checking one single time my MiniDisc!

There was a time I was travelling anywhere in Europe to see shows, especially if there was no touring in Italy: I remember Rush in Paris in 1992 when the trio did not even know what Italy was. I have seen shows at stadiums (Genesis at Wembley) and in places with 30 people (Porcupine Tree in Milano in 1997); bands that would later become huge (Pearl Jam in a free show for 150 people) and masters of jazz (Miles Davis or Sarah Vaughan). Shows I will never forget (Pink Floyd at Versailles castle) and some I would rather forget (no comment...).

I truly believe that live music is what keeps music alive, what make us enjoying it together, what allow us to have deep feelings and transmit it to others. Studio records are nowadays 'commodities': you can buy online as anonymous wav files and listen in your iPod or at home. Live music will always imply an effort to buy the tix, travel to the venue, see the show, think about it when coming back home.

I had two CDs coming from different sources with mixed setlists between the first and second show, with some overlaps. I took the time to reconstruct both setlists in the way the were played that evening. Here you have the whole thing except for one track of show 1. The concert is magnificent and the quintet that played with Miles in 1964 astonishing. That was the first year of the second great quartet that lasted until 1967-68. The source is a very good radio broadcast. If you think that this music wasperformed nearly 50 years ago...

Recorded July 5, 1969 at NEWPORT JAZZ FESTIVAL including the first ever professionally recorded live version of "Miles Runs The Voodoo Down" and the first known recording of the revamped electric version of "Sanctuary" just over a month before Miles went into the studio to record what would become his fastestselling album of all time, BITCHES BREW. Fast-forward one year ... August 1970, ISLE OF WIGHT FESTIVAL in the U.K. where Miles is playing with a much more electric, rock-oriented sound in front of 600,000 people! This incredible full set includes the title track "Bitches Brew" and "Spanish Key" played by Davis's remarkable all-star group captured live at the peak of its powers.

Some Miles on a Sunday afternoon...

Many thanks to our friend Sivad, who sent this Miles Davis video to me some days ago...

"It's not taken from the internet but from my personal collection. A nice Miles show in an

Italian TV studio (Rome, April 7^th 1989) that I already had in digital format.

Very rare in this complete version. 

Hope you dig it..."

Miles Davis - Another Unity - 1975-01-22 - Tokyo,JPN

Miles Davis

Another Unity

1975-01-22

Tokyo,JPN

According to the wikipedia, by the time the group reached Japan in February 1975, Davis was teetering on a physical breakdown and required copious amounts of vodka and narcotics to complete his engagements.
But by then, the band had the moves down pat; the music was exciting and Miles was practically bleeding his horn. In his Autobiography, he said: “When I finished all the gigs with Herbie and came back to New York in the summer of 1975, I was thinking seriously about quitting…
“I quit primarily because of health reasons, but also because I was spiritually tired of all the bullshit I had been going through for all those long years. I felt artistically drained, tired. I didn’t have anything else to say musically… I was sick and tired of going in and out of hospitals and hobbling around, on and off stage. I was beginning to see pity in people’s eyes when they looked at me…
“I thought I might be gone for maybe six months, but the longer I stayed away the more uncertain I was whether I was going to come back at all. And the more I stayed away, the deeper I sank into another dark world, almost as dark as the one I had pulled myself out of when I was a junkie… In the end it took almost six years and even then I was doubtful whether I could truly come all the way back.
“From 1975 until early 1980 I didn’t pick up my horn; for over four years, didn’t pick it up once.”
