This genre-bending, barrier-smashing double LP would become Miles' first RIAA gold album. It was also the record that virtually single-handedly brought jazz into the commercial rock era, earning a place at No. 94 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eReleased in April of 1970, Bitches Brew was informed by and reflective of the music that Miles heard being produced in the late-'60s by Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, James Brown, Santana, Marvin Gaye and others, as well as the Beatles' post-production editing pyrotechnics. The original double-LP's six tracks, as formulated in the studio by Miles and his long-time producer Teo Macero, presented a seismic breakthrough in jazz\/rock\/funk\/R\u0026amp;B. The tracks comprised the 20-minute side-long \"Pharaoh's Dance\" (a Joe Zawinul composition), followed by four Miles compositions, the 27-minute side-long \"Bitches Brew,\" then \"Spanish Key,\" \"John McLaughlin,\" and \"Miles Runs the VooDoo Down,\" concluding with the Wayne Shorter composition, \"Sanctuary.\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBitches Brew also introduced the memorable cover art of the late Mati Klarwein. His uniquely surreal, psychedelic motifs caught the hallucinogenic essence of Bitches Brew (and a year later in 1971, Miles' Live-Evil), as well as Santana's iconic Abraxas in 1970, the Last Poets' This Is Madness in 1971, Earth Wind \u0026amp; Fire's Last Days and Time in 1972, and dozens more album covers.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Swoon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44213774909476,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0788\/4986\/7812\/files\/MILES_DAVIS_BITCHES_BREW_VINYL.jpg?v=1784632107","url":"https:\/\/swoonrecords.com.au\/products\/miles-davis-bitches-brew","provider":"Swoon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
