    In A Silent Way, much prefer it's brevity over Bitches Brew. Not that I don't like BB, just find it way too long, maybe because I'm an old fart an need to pee more :p

    On the corner and Live Evil have always been my favorites, but I guess Bitches Brew is kind of like a lot of peoples inrtoduction to free jazz.

    I thought Bitches Brew was fusion, not free jazz...

    i thought free jazz was the album by ornette coleman

    ;)

    Well It Is Fusion, But So Is A Lot Of Ornettes And Cherrys Music After The Free Jazz Album, And They Were Always Considered Advant Garde, Or Free Jazz, Whatever. Just Listen To The First Couple Of Minutes On The First Song On Bitches Brew And Tell Me The Difference Between Free Jazz And Fusion Besides The Obvious Addition Of The Other Elements. There Is Non, Thats Why It Is Free. Miles Davis Was An Egotistical Racist Anyway So It Doesnt Matter Much.

    I really like both Sketches of Spain and Bitches Brew, I have to say Kind of Blue takes it for me. It had such an infinative sound to it.

    Sorry, I've totally had to revise my opinion after hearing his Jack Johnson sessions. they are of the utmost genius that Miles has ever produced.
