![]() ![]() There is a world here waiting to be discovered. All of it can be traced to On the Corner. The bottom line is that the music on the album itself influenced - either positively or negatively - every single thing that came after it in jazz, rock, soul, funk, hip-hop, electronic and dance music, ambient music, and even popular world music, directly or indirectly. But only now does the possibility even exist to discover not only how this album came about and what Miles was up to, but what else was percolating in that murky underground, in the world of sound, unheard and even unimagined until the moment it made it onto tape with those various groups of players. Listeners still never grasped it entirely and perhaps still won't. It took this long to realize just how big an impact On the Corner has had - some 35 years later - on the music that came after it in electric jazz sure, but elsewhere too. The Complete On the Corner Sessions, recorded between 19, centers on the albums On the Corner, Get Up with It, and the hodgepodge leftovers collection Big Fun. Miles is joined in these recordings by Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin, Jack DeJohnette, Billy Hart, and many others. They cover sixteen sessions from On the Corner, Big Fun, and Get Up with It until Davis's mid-seventies retirement. Another five tracks are previously unissued in full. Twelve of these are previously unissued tracks. The box set includes more than six hours of music. The Complete On the Corner Sessions compiles material from 1972 through 1975 which, due to lineup changes Davis made throughout the era, features over two dozen musicians. Like other Davis box sets, the included material is taken from a wider chronology of sessions than the dates which actually produced the titular album. ![]() The Complete On the Corner Sessions is a posthumous box set by American jazz musician Miles Davis, released in the US on Septemby Columbia Records and in the UK on September 29 on Legacy Recordings.
