Miles Davis - Tokyo 1973 Re broadcast

Review by Jennifer Thomas

Tokyo 1973 Re broadcast is an exceptional album by Miles Davis that showcases his musical prowess and mastery of the trumpet. The album features a live performance recorded in Japan in 1973, which has been remastered for a modern audience. The album is a perfect blend of jazz, funk, and rock, with Davis leading a band of talented musicians who deliver a performance that is both energetic and soulful.

The album begins with "Turnaroundphrase," a track that sets the tone for the entire album with its funky groove and Davis' signature trumpet sound. The band then transitions into "Tune in 5," a track that highlights the band's improvisational skills and showcases Davis' ability to lead the band in a musical conversation. The album also features fan favorites such as "Ife" and "Calypso Frelimo," which are both high-energy tracks that get the audience moving.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Right Off," a track that features a blistering guitar solo by Reggie Lucas and a driving bassline by Michael Henderson. Davis' trumpet work on the track is also exceptional, as he effortlessly weaves in and out of the complex musical arrangement.
