Miles Davis - In Concert: Live at Philarmonic Hall (1973) torrent

“In Concert: Recorded Live at Philharmonic Hall”, recorded in September 1972, is the only Miles Davis’ 70s live album documenting his “On the Corner”street-funk period. It was recorded following studio sessions that materialized on “Big Fun”, “Get Up With It”, and “On the Corner”.

In terms of repertoire, the material from “Get Up With It”, “Big Fun”, and “A Tribute to Jack Johnson” each takes up a greater percentage of space than “On the Corner”, but the hard-driving rhythms and plentiful effects make it clear which of Davis' fusion aesthetics applied. With the help of the wah-wah pedal, Miles shaped its sound as though it were some kind of abstract clay, moving closer to the most radical aspects of Jimi Hendrix’s guitar playing and more indebted to Sly and the Family Stone than to Charlie Parker.

The music is about power, rhythm, and the sum energy of the collective, and of Davis' electric jazz-rock albums, “In Concert” does one of the most mind-bending jobs of living up to those ideals.
