| | Miles Davis - In A Silent Way - On Second Thought - Stylus Magazine |
| | The fresh modes of constructing music that it presented revolutionised the jazz community, and the shifting, ethereal beauty of the actual music contained within has remained beautiful and wonderful, its echoes heard through the last 30 years, touching dance music, electronica, rock, pop, all music. | | | In A Silent Way presented a new kind of music, a music that rose from the ether, drifting and meandering like smoke caught in candlelight. | | | The music itself though, is far away from the structured beauty of that album. |

| | MILES DAVIS / THE COMPLETE IN A SILENT WAY SESSIONS |
| | The full and unedited In A Silent Way session—40 minutes of music recorded on February 18, 1969—attests to the producing genius of Teo Macero. | | | While it is fascinating to hear the music in its organic form, it lacks the focus and power of the edited material found on the album. | | | On the title track, Miles threw away Joe Zawinul's chord sheets, transforming the keyboardist's original melody of "In A Silent Way" into a sublime electric mantra that was overwhelmingly beautiful and fresh. |

| | Miles Davis: The Complete in a Silent Way Sessions - PopMatters Music Review |
| | On In a Silent Way, he used 33 minutes of music to create a 40-minute album, and drew that 33 minutes from a possible 46 that were recorded. | | | The set highlights many important elements to Davis's evolving sound: that aforementioned quest to strip songs down to their essential parts, his shift from acoustic to electric-based music, his choice of sidemen who best play that type of music, and, in turn, his way of coaxing the best music from those sidemen. | | | On the new Complete In a Silent Way Sessions box set from Columbia Records -- the label's most recent set in its laudable and voluminous attempt to compartmentalize Davis's long, complex career into more manageable segments --listeners can see the transition from one era to the next. |

| | Jazzmatazz Review - Miles Davis - The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions |
| | And from failure and discards came an immeasurable achievement—the actualization of "In A Silent Way," one of the most soulful and soft compositions in electrified jazz and one too often overshadowed by its successor album, "Bitches Brew". | | | The era commenced with the "Filles de Kilimanjaro" recordings where the electric piano was insinuated as a chaste accompanying instrument. | | | This is a study in creation, and a rewarding several hours of listening. |

| | Tentative Review by The Christopher Currie: Miles Davis - In a Silent Way |
| | In A Silent Way is a very unusual album, merging at least three different musical styles within its constitution. | | | As the piece develops, each of the musicians are allowed to make their respective statements (Shorter's solo is notable for its melody), with culminates in the drums finally being released for a more complete psychedelic-jazz statement by the entire group (with Davis finally dominating the music). | | | Either way, listeners were confused (and, in many cases, remain so unto the present age). |

| | The music here is broken down into two tracks (although there are really four parts in total, or five if you count the reprise of the title track at the end) with the album opening with the epic improvisation piece, Shhh/Peaceful. | | | With IN A SILENT WAY, the elements of popular music, blues and electronics that had been implicit in Miles Davis' previous recordings now came centre stage, and the trumpeter never looked back again. | | | Amazon.co.uk: In a Silent Way [Original recording remastered]: Music |

| | The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions The A.V. Club |
| | The title is something of a misnomer: A lack of material, rather than an abundance, helped prompt Macero's radical reworking of the sessions into the album's released form. | | | But Williams was among the few who noticed one of the album's defining features at the time, even if he got the "faulty" bit wrong. | | | It places bits out of sequence, creating loops and generally treating the studio and the editing bay as extensions of the composing process, much like the rock albums Davis was devouring at the time. |

| | If one listens to Joe Zawinul's original version of "In a Silent Way," it comes across as almost a folk song with a very pronounced melody. | | | Listening to Miles Davis' originally released version of In a Silent Way in light of the complete sessions released by Sony in 2001 (Columbia Legacy 65362) reveals just how strategic and dramatic a studio construction it was. | | | Miles Davis : In a Silent Way - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |

| | In A Silent Way Book Review |
| | Joe, in his infinite wisdom--and Wayne too, actually--he was the one who said a lot of times, when he was with Miles, he would bring in a chart and Miles would just play the intro, and that became a great song. | | | A hallmark of Weather Report's recording style was the on-the-spot in-studio jam and post-production manipulation that either improved on original compositions, or led to entirely new ones. | | | The meat of the book is the Weather Report years, and here we're treated to considerable behind-the-scenes reporting on the making of every Weather Report album and the revolving nature of the band's members. |

| | Something similar to in a silent way - Jazz Bulletin Board |
| | It's a underrated album, not better than IASW IMO but just as good. | | | It's not an old record, but "The Infinite" by Dave Douglas is a bit "Silent Wayish", both in concept and mood. | | | Really bright, uplifting music - in my opinion better than Silent Way. |

| | In a Silent Way (1969) |
| | The In a silent way/it's about that time suite off this album is one of the most beautiful pieces of modern music to me, the 2 rhodes pianos played by hancock and corea shimmer allover this record. | | | Tony Williams' manic hi-hat action leads perfectly into the record, the result is a magnificently tranquil musical lattice. | | | This is the first jazz record I ever owned, but I wouldn't have it any other way |

| | Pages of Fire: Discography: In A Silent Way |
| | On In a Silent Way, Davis was moving away from "tunes" while utilizing more electric instrumental coloring and rockish patterns and splicing to manufacture the music -- ideas which seemed to take hold a year after his stunning Plugged Nickel recordings. | | | Here the music continued to show the distinct Davis use of suspension and space, but it was more amorphic and no longer seemed rooted in a clear, direct emotion, but was rather indirectly emotional in an illusive sense of reality. | | | In a Silent Way brought Miles Davis together with members of his brillant group of the '60s (Herbie Hancock/Wayne Shorter/Tony Williams) and emerging musical spirits (Chick Corea/Dave Holland/Joe Zawinul/John McLaughlin) who would launch Davis into the Bitches Brew era. |
