Miles Davis "GET UP WITH IT" Poll

On Double Moon, the first one of those mentioned, There may not be any "electric instruments," other than effects of mics etc., but lots of spindly, treble-y phrasing and textures, lots of crackling, crispy expression overall.

Really happy to see this material get a lot more love. I just accepted it as "acknowledged classic" and moved on pretty quickly when I first heard it in the early 2000s. It didn't really start to resonate more deeply until the On the Corner sessions box set was released. Something clicked differently hearing those songs in that context and ever since then I've rated Get Up With It pretty highly. Live stuff from the era is always at least decent.

RE: The Bill Laswell "remixes" of this material from the late 90s— That was my first time hearing this material, so when I heard the full versions, it was clear which was better, but the Laswell mixes were at least entertaining.

Sorry, enthusiasm has me hitting submit post before I'm ready to do so.

My main point in bringing up the Bill Laswell thing is that it served its purpose with me, as it was the thing that made me start paying attention enough to be to going to the record store and buying Miles reissues on their release date.

I still think that Laswell record is pretty good (not the Panthalassa remixes album, but the original edit/collage) especially the "Black Satin; What If; Agharta Prelude Dub" section.

Yeah agreed Maresn3st; that's the one I also meant. I heard the remixes of the initial Laswell "remixes" way later and was wholly unimpressed.

I guess there's maybe still confusion as the first record was a re-edit and mix, from the source tapes and the second 'remix' record was shitty. I think poor Teo was up in arms about his original edits being pulled apart, but 'In A Silent Way' is even more enjoyable in its longer version.

Yeah, I never knew what to actually call that Laswell thing.

That's what I'll call it from now on: That Laswell Thing.☺

It's called something on the record sleeve, let's have a look.

Oh yeah, 'reconstruction & mix translation', that's fair

Yeah, and it's still streamable, buyable

Following the May 1974 Rio show posted upthread, The Heat Warps posted three São Paulo shows from the same tour a few days ago:

I've had the May 28 show for a while and never really got into it due to the muffled sound quality. But the June 1 show is new to me and it's STUNNING, probably the best recording I've heard from the Dark Magus line-up. Amazing sound from Dave Liebman's onstage tape recorder--hot but not overloaded and everyone comes through clearly. I haven't even checked out the June 2 show yet because I keep replaying this one...
