Miles Davis' late 1969/early 1970 performances with the "Lost Quintet" (Miles Davis (tpt); Wayne Shorter (ss, ts); Chick Corea (el-p); Dave Holland (b, el-b); Jack DeJohnette (d)) are unquestionably some of the most exciting of this long career. Named for the fact that they never recorded as a five-man lineup in the studio, and up until the 2001 release of Live At Fillmore East (March 7, 1970): It's About That Time, had never been featured on an official release, the "Lost Quintet" played an overwhelmingly important role in bridging Miles' older, more familiar material with his new electric direction. This meant that sets saw the unlikely pairing of standards like "'Round Midnight" or "I Fall In Love Too Easily" with "Bitches Brew" and "Miles Run The Voodoo Down," often segueing into one another to create a singular suite, and all overflowing with incredible intensity. A monumental task that produced amazing results. Jack DeJohnette and Chick Corea are absolutely ferocious on both of these recordings.

waw!!! Now, It's a good day. Thanks.
I already had the music on the Juan-les-Pins disk, tho I had no idea what the line-up was for the show.
More great stuff from the Heat Warps! Not only the details and line-up of the concert, but another whole set as well.
thanks again!
PS I've got some live Miles you may be interested in. ;)
great band
thanks for these
Nice to meet you.
I was able to download live of Miles which I looked for from the past this time.
Therefore I thank you very much.
I uploaded Deep Brew Vol.1 of Miles which you looked for.
Download Link：http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XOG4OGVY
In addition, I send a message.
Thanking you in advance.
I'm very pleased to see that this is being enjoyed by so many.
Many thanks to Hansame for Deep Brew Vol. 1!!! I may turn this into a proper posting in the near future if you don't mind. Not to sound greedy, but do you also have Deep Brew Volume 2? I'd love to wrap my ears around this full set!
As always, enjoy the music!
This blog look very nice. Thanks for the November Miles and the JB. Got any Sugarcane Harris?
waow! here we're on serious miles territory... incredible! i really wasn't aware of this "lost quintet" phenomenon. i found that last year's "cellar door" concerts were already such an interesting transition in miles'band electric vocabulary. thanks for these gems!
too bad hansame's treat was in .rar format... so i hope it will become a heat post someday...
Great tracks! Fabulous photo! Where did you find it? Is it in NYC? I forgot about his 5 Ferraris!
I see you being pleased and am glad.
You may use this sound source freely.
I prepare upload of Deep Brew vol.2 now.
Is file compression besides rar?

Enjoy it!
See again!!
Thanks Hansame! I'll give these both a proper posting up here at the Heat Warps very soon. I have no problems with .rar files, but some users have to download software to open them. I will post these in .zip.
Wayne, an incredible photo indeed! I found them over at the site of photographer Baron Wolman. You can purchase the actual print here: http://www.fotobaron.com/blow_out/pages/Miles-Davis-69518-17a.htm
The show from July 25, 1969 , Juan-les-Pins is available on a CBS release from Japan called 1969 Miles. You can find it at Amazom.com. Pricey though.
Great blog. I've found so much great stuff here.
Wow, amazing stuff. I had no idea the 1969 band ever played "Milestones" or "I Fall In Love Too Easily."
Thanks so much.

Amazing masterpieces.Thank you for this beautiful music
Thanks for this concerts,
I could not download the Salle Pleyel Concert, could you up load it again?
Link to Salle Pleyel Concert is no more. Any chance of a re-up? Thanks for the Juan-les-Pins. Very Nice.
Second link is dead, I'm afraid!
The fine folks over at The Roadhouse have recently posted both sets of the Salle Pleyel show. Grab it here: http://the-roadhouse-viander.blogspot.com/2009/05/miles-davis-live-in-paris-salle-pleyel.html
The Roadhouse blog is gone. Will you please either reload the original Salle Pleyel link or the two-sets link from The Roadhouse? Thanks...you can never get too much Miles Davis!
Thanks for the heads up, OB Dan. I've re-upped the Salle Pleyel first set and added the second set at your request. Thanks for dropping in.
Wowie zowie...thanks! I haven't been around since the old look...good to see the Warp is still doin' it!
Oops...forgot to mention...I lost a whole external drive's worth of downloads, and that included all my Miles Davis. This is the first blog I came to, to get some of it back.
I just finished downloading both sets. They are great, from the MD days I like best. Thanks so much for helping me fill the gap.
My pleasure, Dan, and thanks for keeping Heat Warps on your radar. I'm back to posting on a somewhat-regular basis now, so let me know if there are still Miles shows you're looking for and I'll check the vaults.
Thanks so much for this . . . I've been looking for these complete concerts for awhile now.
My pleasure, Beebe. Enjoy!
Thanks a lot man, precious music!!!
Mario
