Editorial Reviews
Product Description
A foreshadowing of the area between rock and jazz that he would further explore with 1970's hypnotic Bitches Brew, this was Miles' first album to feature a full-blown electric approach. Incorporating elements of classical sonata form, both of the lengthy cuts featured here defy convention with 3 distinct "movements" in which harmony, rhythm and melody take a back seat to impressionistic texture. Listen closely, and you can hear the earliest inklings of modern-day fusion on Shhh/Peaceful and the equally spacey in a Silent Way/It's About That Time.
Amazon.com
Miles Davis's famous mid-1960s quintet, featuring saxophonist Wayne Shorter and pianist Herbie Hancock, was intact until just a few weeks before his new, electric ensemble recorded In a Silent Way. Legendary as a kind of line in the sand challenging jazz fans during the ascendance of electric, psychedelic rock, In a Silent Way hinted at the repetitive polyrhythms Davis would employ throughout the early 1970s. It also partook generously of electric piano and bass and rekindled the tonal palette that Davis had explored famously with Kind of Blue. But In a Silent Way remains a clearly electric jazz record, part ambient color exploration, part rock-inflected energy and vibe, and part outright maverick creativity. Davis takes many long, breathy solos, and they glisten in a burnished blue against his new group's strange admixture of musical moods. --Andrew Bartlett

Miles Davis was the opposite, a man who never allowed himself, or his music, to get too comfortable, to get stagnant.
Sometimes the new directions he went were exciting and enjoyable to listen to, sometimes they weren't but he always pushed the envelope.
This beautiful album stands as one of the great triumphs of his life.
This is music that is as complex as any that he ever created but still is accessible and pleasing to the ear. As a result, it is music that you can listen to in any situation and enjoy.
It rewards close listening, repeated listenings yet still can function as very enjoyable background music for reading, drawing, studying etc.
The first thing you will notice about this album is the very pleasing sound of the rhythm sections comprised of Three Keyboardists, Guitar and Tony Williams fine cymbal work.
These new sounds, unlike any other in jazz up to that point, creates a dreamy, surreal soundscape which draws you in and over which the soloists can create their beautiful statements.
The two tracks both do a great job of building tension and mood. My favorite part of the album is during the track It's About That Time in which a two bar bass line groove is used to build energy throughout the guitar and soprano sax solos until Miles solo where the drummer Tony Williams goes completely nuts for a few measures. After the chill out groove of the prior music it really is a satisfying and beautiful moment.
This music is some of the most treasured I own.
I've listened to it sober, I've listened to it stoned. I've listened to it in headphones (often!) and on high end sound systems. I've listened to it laying in bed at night or reading the newspaper during the day.
Whatever the situation , it always puts me where I need to be.
Later on, when I got older I rediscovered that tape and all of a sudden, to my surprise I started enjoying the music.
Now, 20 years later I started rediscovering the pleasure of listening to vinyl and I had to have that LP.
I don’t claim I understand all the nuisances and complexity of this extraordinary record but I enjoy it a lot.
For some music you just have to grow up-at least I had to;) And now I love it!
As far as the product (vinyl itself)- it came badly warped?
Everything (vinyl, sleeve, etc) looked brand new and great but the record itself was all wavy, but played well. I contacted seller and was promptly offered refund if I return it or discount if I decide to keep it.
I decided to keep it (I got my discount right away) and try to flatten the record myself. I think I made it a bit better.
It’s not entirely flat, but still plays well. For the price (considering discount) I think it was worth. As far as the music-the more I listen to it, the more I love it. Kudos to the seller; great customer service, communication and problem solving
Highly recommended-very addictive record with many layers.
a manipulated effort by Teo Macero, actually repeating sections of the recording to
accomplish the bogus "exposition-development-recapitulation" scheme he must have
come up with post hoc. I'd love to hear Haydn and Mozart "sonatas" using a recording
of the first part of the movement repeated to create the last part of the movement.
What a bunch of hooey, from the perspective of half a century on.
