| | Miles Davis - Bitches Brew |
 | | Bitches' Brew is a further extension of the basic idea he investigated in his two previous albums, Filles De Kilimanjaro and In A Silent Way. |  | | The CD reissue adds "Feio," a track recorded early in 1970 with the same band. |  | | Thought by many to be the most revolutionary album in jazz history, having virtually created the genre known as jazz-rock fusion (for better or worse) and being the jazz album to most influence rock and funk musicians, Bitches Brew is, by its very nature, mercurial. |

| | Splendid Magazine reviews Bitches Brew: Bootleg Brew Vol. I |
 | | Bootleg Brew, naturally, has more of a raw sound, but the band retains their perfect mix of giddy improvisation and infectious and dynamic melodies. |  | | Although "Prelude (Part II)" retains the eccentric percussion of the two tracks before it, the song is appropriately lower-key -- for the listener can't help but be a little worn out by fifty-odd minutes of frenetic jazz that lead up to this indulgently-titled track. |  | | This, they explain, is because they decided to cut a live album after a number of amazing performances that, by their very nature, could never be duplicated. |

| | MIles Davis' Bitches Brew |
 | | Augmenting the original Bitches Brew release with recorded material from the four additional studio dates was a purely musical one made by producer Bob Belden. |  | | Columbia/Legacy recently released The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions, a four-CD package that includes nine previously unissued tracks and several numbers that were released on such other Davis albums as Big Fun, Circle in the Round and Live-Evil. |  | | Unlike other Davis box sets from Legacy, The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions opens with the six Bitches Brew tracks in their LP sequence, satisfying those who want to hear the tracks in their original order. |

| | Salon Entertainment A master at dangerous play |
 | | In this album -- on which "Bitches Brew" stalwarts Chick Corea and Dave Holland made their Miles debuts -- jazz seemed to have been boiled down into the most intimate, elusive and enigmatic of essential parts. |  | | But for the greatest creator of improvisational music in the 20th century, changing history was par for the course. |  | | At once lyrical and off-kilter, it had the weight of a classical composition -- and was as airy and insubstantial as a soap bubble. |

 | | I, Bitches Brew has made a totally psychedelic jazz fusion album. |  | | Now I've said for a while that I think that the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey has the coolest song titles around, but Bitches Brew are right behind them. |  | | Jazz has become really popular again, the people's music, music to dance to like it was back in the day. |

| | Miles Davis The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions |
 | | What coalesced as these ten to twenty musicians fed frenzy-like off the brash impulses of one another was a music that literally lifted itself away from their conscious control and began making its own decisions. |  | | Suffice it to say that much of the previously unreleased material travels along similar time wrinkles, some of it leaving unanswered questions for the listener to forever puzzle over. |  | | Sure enough, this sprawling team of talent would create with Miles the most impenetrable, incendiary, and finally revelatory musical experiment of his lifetime. |

 | | While the song selection is interesting, spanning the frame from "So What" to "Tutu," the playing is less than inspired. |  | | Miles’ own "Bitches Brew Sessions" is the fourth in Sony’s massive and impressive boxed set releases, and comes, as have all of those releases, in an incredible array of discography, photographs, recollections and essays. |  | | As Carlos Santana points out in his interesting introductory liner notes, this was a period of incredible searching by Miles, as he and producer Teo Macero started a journey into the incorporation of rock rhythms and attitude into his previously straight ahead jazz compositions. |

| | JamBase BITCHES BREW 12.23 SAN FRANCISCO |
 | | With heavyweight hornman Jab on trumpet (electrified and spacey with wah-wah and reverb effects), the band tore through a dizzying array of vintage Miles compositions, spanning several of his most ambitious, funktified fusion albums. |  | | After the 1970 release of Bitches Brew, the first of several dense, groove-drenched textural experiments, Miles was widely panned by jazz purists who claimed he had sacrificed the structured, harmonic significance of his earlier post-bop work in favor of a diluted pop-jazz crossover. |  | | It took more than twenty years for this mystifying music to return to the popular idiom, and fortunately the players in Bitches Brew not only sincerely love the form but also have the guts and the skill to handle it and make it something totally their own. |

 | | Tuskeegee Experiments stands as one of the most dramatic leaps forward in improvised music since Miles Davis laid the groundwork for hiphop in On the Corner. |  | | This album, his first, is an hypnotic brew of funk, hip hop, and hard bop, interwoven with strands of Schumann, yes, that Schumann. |  | | The gifted young clarinetist Don Byron is just the latest to shatter this outlandish lie. |

| | Borders - Store Inventory - Title Detail - Bitches Brew |
 | | Among the most controversial recordings in the history of jazz, BITCHES BREW was Miles Davis' shot across the bow of jazz insularity, a bold statement about jazz's ability to draw upon elements of popular culture, without mitigating its spirit of spontaneous invention. |  | | Davis became a lightning rod for jazz's transformation, by mixing the best elements of '60s free jazz with dancing funk rhythms, electric rock textures, blues phrasing and his own breakthroughs in harmony and modality. |  | | Joe Zawinul's "Pharaoh's Dance" and Davis' "Bitches Brew" treat their multiple themes in a ritualistic manner, as several strata of voices engage the lead melody in exciting exchanges. |
