If there's a genre where live albums work best, it's surely gotta be jazz. It's essentially a live form of music anyway, even when aimed to be recorded, but the crowd noises and atmosphere seem to add a whole new dimension to the music, making it much easier to imagine yourself there in the hustle 'n' bustle of the audience. Here we find ourselves in Tokyo in July 1964, and Miles is joined by Sam Rivers, Herbie Hancock, Tony Williams and Ron Carter ("...is on the bass!") Again, I'll have to admit to my lack of jazz knowledge, but the playing seems very natural; I can't say I understand what people are referring to when they say Rivers is out of place, the group sounds great to me. All the tracks fly by nicely and we even get a reworking of the much-famed 'So What', which swings a hell of a lot more than the original. Ever find yourself wanting to smash through the speaker and watch it as it happened? For me, that's this album all over.
