Great Concert! Great Musicians!
A Tribute to Miles Davis was filmed in Lugano, Switzerland on July 2nd, 1992. The concert is absolutely amazing! What a beautiful tribute to Miles from Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, Tony Williams & Wallace Roney!
Tony Williams plays his drums with such energy! This is first time I see Him playing on video. All musicians have a blast! They enjoy playing all this music for themselves & for the rest of us.
The set list:
1. SO WHAT (9:27)
2. R.J. (6:16)
3. LITTLE ONE (10:23)
4. PINOCCHIO (10:07)
5. ALL BLUES (12:06)
6. DRUM SOLO (2:54)
7. ELEGY (11:15)
8. ORBITS/PARAPHANALIA (13:48)
9. EIGHTY ONE/THE SORCERER (14:58)
10. PEE WEE/THE THEME (8:36)
Total Time: 1h 40min
Sound quality is good: Dolby Stereo.
Video quality: OK: it is a copy of VHS tape to DVD – so we have 240 lines max. A lot of “noise”. It is like making your own copy of old videotape to DVD disc. Feels...
Finally available everywhere...... why took so long
Apart from waiting so long to get a DVD copy - think 20 years now there is nothing more to say - the music is amazing as on cd tribute to miles issued some time ago in 1994 with the same cast. Thanks
Considered by Many, the Best Jazz Group of All Time
I also have a bootleg of this group with Miles in Milan...early 60s.
This group was and is stunning.
Concerning this video under review, the picture quality is not the best but the audio is very very good...not 2013 pristine chapel good, but much more than good enough. Happy we have this.
I hate to say it, but Wallace Roney is so good and so humble that you don't miss Miles...... Um, I guess I just said it.
I love Miles and his music. No one better to represent it than this group. That said I'll also get the new Miles Davis Live in Poland 1983 DVD with Al Foster and John Scofield = Phenonmenal. But this group is still considered Mile's best...so who better for a great tribute in a great DVD.
