Miles Davis Quintet, Teatro dell'Arte, Milan, Italy, October 11th, 1964

 


Full Concert Friday this week features the Miles Davis Quintet performing at the Teatro dell'Arte (Theater of Arts), in Milan, Italy, on October 11th, 1964.  This is the middle period I suppose between the great quintets he had depending on what style of jazz Miles was feeling at the time, which started with hard bop in the '50s and extended to the early years of jazz fusion in the late 1960s and early '70s.  I suppose you could say that this was the middle period of that length of time, with a quintet of fabulous players.

The band lineup for this performance includes Miles Davis on trumpet, Wayne Shorter on tenor saxophone, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and Tony Williams on drums.  The set list is:

1. Autumn Leaves
2. My Funny Valentine
3. All Blues
4. All of You
5. Joshua

Jimi Hendrix "Freedom"

 


From a live performance, Jimi Hendrix and the Jimi Hendrix Experience at the L.A. Forum here is "Freedom".  The audio quality on this is just OK.  It appears to be a bootleg audio recording or something.  It could have officially been recorded as well.  The date of this show at the L.A. Forum is April 25th, 1970, and "Freedom" was the tenth song on the set list.
