Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (1969)



Got into one of my jazz phases recently, which are usually short and involve either Charlie Parker or Guru's solo stuff and then that's it. But then I heard this. Wow. This is music that almost defies words and description really. This is the kind of stuff I imagine artists listening to, cooped up from the outside world and creating their masterpieces.
