Miles Davis - Complete Jack Johnson Sessions D4~5-2003 [EAC - FLAC] (oan) By Rod Sibley The Complete Jack Johnson Sessions, Columbia's latest addition to the Miles Davis reissue series, documents the period from January 27, 1970 to June 4, 1970 and contains unedited takes from the sessions plus previously unreleased material. A bit of background: Jack Johnson was the world heavyweight boxing champion from 1908-1915. Miles felt an affinity toward Johnson; not only because Miles himself boxed, but because of the racial issues of being a Black man in America both men faced. Director William Clayton made a documentary movie about Johnson's life. A Tribute To Jack Johnson is the soundtrack to the film. The album was released in the summer of 1971. A Tribute To Jack Johnson was a continuation of Miles' musical direction away from more traditional jazz forms. The densely layered music of Bitches Brew, recorded in August of 1969, was stripped down and became funkier and more groove oriented. The music also incorporated more elements of rock with the guitar work of John McLaughlin. For listeners whose only Miles Davis recording is Kind Of Blue and want to hear some "electric Miles," The Complete Jack Johnson Sessions may be the starting point to work your way backward, as well as forward, through the Miles Davis catalog Disc Four: May-June 1970 Depending on your taste, Disc Four will be a hit or miss affair. The music starts shifting from being guitar-dominant to keyboard-rich. Jarrett plays his electric piano with a lot of distortion and sometimes overwhelms the music, particularly on one the two takes of "Ali." But when he turns it down, as he does on the tune "Konda," you finally hear how beautiful his playing can be. However, these pieces are either overly long or don't seem to have a sense of direction. The two takes of "Little High People" show the interaction between Jarrett and Chick Corea [both were in Miles' band for a short period] and the contrasts in their comping and solo styles. Also of note is the use by Miles of a device that adds a suboctave to the tone of his trumpet on these tracks. The rest of the fourth CD contains different takes of "Nem Um Talvez" ("Not Even A Maybe") and "Selim" ("Miles" spelled backward); both written and arranged by Brazilian musician Hermeto Pascoal. Also included are two takes of "Little Church," by Miles. They were originally released on the Live- Evil album. One hopes that the reason they are presented here, besides being part of this box sets recording chronology, is so they won't be included on a future Cellar Door/Live-Evil box set. Your mileage will vary regarding your enjoyment of these pieces.
