I'm really anticipating the May release of "Bitches Brew" on SACD, and hoping for something to tide me over in the meantime...
I love Miles, but I'm really only familiar with his material up to "In a Silent Way" (and that latter one only because it was among the first SACD releases). I've been slowly adding all the Miles Davis SACDs to my collection, but I realized that I don't have any post-1970 titles at all ("In a Silent Way" being the farthest, chronologically, that I've yet ventured).
So, I know some of you are experts - Keith? Mike? - and I'm hoping for some advice as to which of these three titles (or even another one altogether) would be my best first-step with Miles into the 1970s?
(Foremost, would be quality of the music and the performance, but if there's one title that's sonically superior to all others, I'd love to know that, too!)
