This is the third disc guitarist Henry Kaiser and trumpet player Wadada Leo Smith have recorded devoted to celebrating, reinterpreting, and expanding upon Miles Davis' Bitches Brew era electric and funk-infused bands from the late 60s to early 70s. While it has found favor among samplers for its incessant rhythms, and has even been subject to radical remixes, this thirty-year-old music is surprisingly unexplored. Reveling in the layered tapestries that characterized such albums as Agharta and On the Corner, this ten piece band is both unrelenting and subtle. One group composition and Smith's "Thunder & Lightning" round out this lengthy, but ever-unfolding set. Performed live in the studio, the recording is astoundingly clear and warm. --David Greenberger
