Miles Davis: Live at Montreux (1991)
I was lucky enough to see this concert live as seventeen-year-old high school student, and it impacted the course of my life in so many ways… the band included three people that would become mentors and friends: Kenny Garrett, Conrad Herwig, and Tom Varner… I was seeing Miles Davis perform for the second time in my life… and hearing the music of Gil Evans playing live gave it all a whole, new meaning… and now it is online for your viewing pleasure IN IT’S ENTIRETY! So happy to see this make it’s way online… you can also get this in CD and MP3…
