Super Miles Pacheco!

"hey!

this is a complete glimpse over an specific opus of this great musician. they say that jimi hendrix's music influenced miles davis in unsuspected ways; they even made some jam sessions in electric ladyland though it seems that there are no recorded evidence of this. hendrix where a major sonic influence over several musicians in different genres.

in these five discs you will find some of the best music; it is also an historical record because it shows us the development between fussion jazz: it's not complete rock nor complete jazz, just GREAT music!

if you are hesitating, thinking "well, perhaps i can make it just with the single disc", don't limit your experience and get the complete sessions. you will find great material here that is not in in the single record. i bet that if youe get the single edition, you will be asking yourself, utterly curious about the complete sessions. so don't be shy and get this box set. GREAT price, isn't?"

"Miles and Co. take you by the scruff and say "We're going for a ride!". And what a ride. Sure, there are repeats and thematic echoes along the road but the ride is never, never dull and there's something to enjoy all along the way to the end of the journey. This is music that is bold, adventurous, dexterous, sassy, sharp and sometimes so downright brilliant that you just have to laugh. It jumps, pokes, scrapes, swings, sways and blows. I have always loved the original album and now with this complete set my appreciation and enjoyment has increased immeasurably. Don't worry about the nay-sayers who decry the multiple versions of numbers in a row. Regard those versions, as someone else here has aptly described them, as one long tune with repeated motifs and variations on a theme. Like 'The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions' this is The Gods At Play."
