Item Description
"As the 1960s came to a close, Miles Davis had
begun to drift away from traditional jazz music, as his
second ""quintet"" period reached an end. He had
been toying with jazz fusion in live settings, and on
his two 1968 releases Miles In The Sky and Filles de
Kilimanjaro. Then came 1969's In A Silent Way, an
experimental work of jazz music, clocking in at nearly
40 minutes, stretched across four tracks. An album
which featured revolutionary production and editing
techniques, (Courtesy of frequent Davis producer
and collaborator Teo Macero) and contributions from
many of the greatest jazz musicians of all time,
among them were Herbie Hancock on keys, Wayne
Shorter on saxophone, Tony Williams on drums, and
then newcomer John McLaughlin, who would go on
to form the acclaimed Mahavishnu Orchestra.
With such an eclectic sound, and a stunning array of
talent, contemporary reviewers didn't know at first
what to think of In A Silent Way. Many jazz critics
considered Davis' merging of genres to be a betrayal
of tradition, while rock critics reacted ecstatically.
(Rolling Stone's own Lester Bangs once referred to
In A Silent Way as ""the kind of album that gives you
faith in the future of music."") Over time critical
reception to the album improved dramatically, and
the album is largely considered one of Davis' finest
achievements, and a significant piece of jazz history.
An album that foresaw where the genre was headed
and gleefully embraced the future, setting the stage
for greater things to come, as Miles Davis entered
the 1970s."
