1971 was a year of big change for Frank Zappa and his Mothers Of Invention. He shook up the group's membership significantly and was making big changes in his sound and vision, and really creating some of the greatest music of his career. The group had played a gig earlier in the evening and then recorded this mostly acoustic set for broadcast on CKGM-FM radio. The set finds Zappa backed by the former members of the Turtles, Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan (aka The Phlorescent Leech and Eddie), as well as Ian Underwood, Aynsley Dunbar, and more. A killer set of truly original music from one of the USA's greatest ever musical exports.

Miles Davis and his electric group of the early '70s is some of the most innovative and important jazz music ever set to tape. While the studio recordings are amazing, they often pale in comparison to the loose, improvisational and fiery heights that the group could reach in front of a live audience (as was captured on Live-Evil (1971), In Concert (1973), and Miles Davis At Fillmore (1970), among others). This set from September of 1972 is no exception. Recorded just prior to the release of On The Corner (1972), this stellar performance features tracks from that classic as well as Jack Johnson (1971) and Bitches Brew (1970). Featuring the great guitar work of his live band staple, Reggie Lucas, and the phenomenal saxophonist Carlos Garnett, this is early '70s electric Miles at its finest, a brilliant radio broadcast.
