The Complete On the Corner Sessions

by Miles Davis

The Complete On the Corner Sessions cover art

This exhaustive six-disc box set chronicles the fiercely controversial, rhythmically dense studio sessions recorded between 1972 and 1975. Expanding massively upon the original 'On the Corner' LP, the compilation reveals Miles Davis deeply immersed in the urban grooves of Sly Stone and James Brown, as well as the avant-garde electronics of Karlheinz Stockhausen. The sprawling, heavily edited jams captured here stand as a monumental, polarizing peak in the evolution of jazz-funk and psychedelic fusion.
