Free Music Notes for Black Beauty: Miles Davis at Fillmore West
Free Music Review: Excellent
Hit: 4 Stars
Improvised as they may seem, Miles' sets from 1970 were planned. Listen to any of the shows released, and it is the same tracks in the same sequence. The spontanaity came in how they were played.
Black Beauty is the counterpart to Live at Filmore, recoreded at Filmores West and East repectively. While the sets are the same, the New York shows are slower in tempo, and more contemplative, and feature more free form jamming, at least as edited by Marceo.
The habit of jazz musicians playing the same music at faster tempos as a tour grinds on goes back to dixiland, and while there is nothing wrong with this, it makes Black Beauty inferior to At Filmore.
This music has so much happening in it, why rush? This was a new type of music in 1970, and listening this, you loose the sense of pobing, of discovery, that you get on the East Coast gigs.
That said, this would probably be a classic album in my book if I had not listened to At Filmore, and this is still some of the best improvised music out there, so I would advise Milesphiles and acolytes alike to get this.
