It's no exaggeration to say that the Miles Davis 1970 release, BITCHES BREW, changed the course of modern music. In perhaps the most daring and brilliant of the many musical shifts that characterized the trumpet legend's career, Miles assembled an explosive combination of the finest improvising musicians at that moment and gave them a fiercely modernist - and electric - directive that produced a jarring change from all that had preceded it. Now, 40 years later, some of the finest musicians are again joining forces to both pay tribute to this incredible musical moment and also present some of their own original music.
