Miles Davis: Bitches Brew
"Miles Davis ... ever ahead of the curve, began inventing '70s jazz in 1969, first with the sublime electrified sounds of In a Silent Way and again, later that year, in New York City at Columbia Records Studio B (the same room where Springsteen would record his demos). At 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 19 -- the morning after Jimi Hendrix closed the Woodstock festival a hundred miles upstate with his wildly improvisational take on 'The Star-Spangled Banner' -- Davis began recording Bitches Brew, the opening salvo of the jazz-fusion movement" (Will Hermes, Love Goes to Buildings on Fire, p. 20).
