Miles Davis - Agharta (1975) torrent

“Agharta” was recorded on the afternoon of February 1, 1975, at one of two concerts Miles Davis performed at the Osaka Festival Hall in Japan. (The evening show produced the 1976 album “Pangaea”.)

It finds Miles Davis further exploring the possibilities of Funk music, only this time fusing it with the aggressive rock-stylings of “Bitches Brew” and the atmospheric nuances of “In a Silent Way”. This is the most fully realized expression of the direction Miles Davis was pursuing with his 1973-75 band.

This is how far Miles came in his musical explorations that ended with his collapse in 1975, and it is very far indeed. “Agharta” is a smoking set of jazz-funk fusion.
