REVIEWS:
''Bitches Brew'' is a studio double album by jazz musician Miles Davis, released in April 1970 on Columbia Records. The album continued his experimentation with electric instruments previously featured on his critically acclaimed ''In a Silent Way'' album. With the use of these instruments, such as the electric piano and guitar, Davis rejected traditional jazz rhythms in favor of a looser, rock-influenced improvisational style.
''Bitches Brew'' was Davis's first gold record, selling more than half a million copies. Upon release, it received a mixed response, due to the album's unconventional style and revolutionary sound. Later, ''Bitches Brew'' gained recognition as one of jazz's greatest albums and a progenitor of the jazz rock genre, as well as a major influence on rock and funk musicians. In 1998, Columbia Records released ''The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions'', a four-disc box set that included the original album as well as the studio sessions through February 1970. - Wikipedia
