AT FILLMORE is the second release to document Miles' live presentation of BITCHES BREW's breakthroughs. Broken up into four parts, it shows the unprecedented growth of the same band that recorded BLACK BEAUTY just three months earlier. The addition of Keith Jarrett's organ expands the music even further over the borders that defined "jazz," creating a singular hybrid of rock, blues and jazz.
Once again, chaos dwells within the belly of this musical beast. From the electro-static of "The Mask" through the end of "It's About That Time," Davis, Jarrett, Chick Corea and Steve Grossman remain inextricably intertwined. And at the center there's always Miles and his trumpet--spurring his charges towards unexplored territory, ever ready to fall off the edge of the cliff just to land back on his feet.
Industry Reviews
...The ears-open interactivity of Davis' ensembles--that ability to engage in serious musical conversation while flying in the upper atmosphere--is enough to shame any current bebop-babbling jazz automaton...
Musician (08/01/1997)
...It's the remarkable sound of great young musicians playing out of their skins...
Mojo (10/01/2001)
...With his inimitable trumpeting--by turns melancholy, pungent and lyrical--at the music's center, his electrified cohorts stretch the limits of jazz, rock and funk... - Rating: B-
Entertainment Weekly (08/01/1997)
...a volatile state of molten flux, expanding, shredding and spinning off...in an acrobatic display of without-a-net aplomb...
JazzTimes (10/01/1997)
4 stars (out of 5) - ...FILMORE EAST consists of scraggly funkified static groove music, each piece seguing into the next.... the interplay and counterpoint between Jarrett and Corea make for especially fascinating listening...
