Yellow vinyl LP in clear plastic sleeve with black lettering. Limited edition 500 copies.

Invited to play the University of Michigan in February of 1970, Miles Davis treated audiences to one of the most groundbreaking moments in jazz. He played the title track from his upcoming Bitches Brew album. The album would not be released until a few months later, so those who were in the audience were privy to a revolution in jazz in the making. Bringing in electric instruments and a guitar-heavy, rock-infused sensibility, Miles Davis once again led jazz music into the future. When Bitches Brew was finally released it became Miles Davis' first gold album and one of the first jazz albums to cross over to a rock audience. Side two of this album is taken from a show Miles' septet played near Zurich in October 1971. 'Yesternow' had been recently released on Miles' Tribute To Jack Johnson album. This album is also considered one of the greatest jazz fusion albums in history. In keeping with the black power message, the central theme of 'Yesternow' is appropriately taken from James Brown's historic 'Say It Loud,' while 'Sanctuary,' is a Wayne Shorter composition from Bitches Brew.
