most records you buy w/ max roach on them are going to be good in my experience. he's like a trademark of quality.

A great album, but it's swung from underrated to overrated in the past 10 years.
― Moodles, Thursday, 1 September 2011 21:38 (twelve years ago) link
i still remember hearing this for the 1st time in the mid-late 90s. I ordered it in via the library,it was in the big stores section of a library in east kilbride and hadn't been in the proper library for years so it was in great condition and it blew me away. Wish i had offered to buy it from them. Luckily it got a bit of a revival a few years back with that box and is now longer 'a lost classic'.
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Thursday, 1 September 2011 21:40 (twelve years ago) link
didn't realize this one was so regarded. pretty good album, nothing extraordinary. might have to reinvestigate tho.

box set of jack johnson sessions is worth it imo, tons of great stuff. not that pricey these days either.

Great record, well chuffed it got in so high. I really recommend it to those who haven't heard it. Fantastic line up on it too.

1st one in top 50 I've never heard of. Never even heard of Andrew Hill. Get a more distinctive jazzy name imo.

will check it out, but if it's not marginally better than Jack Johnson I won't be responsible for my actions...
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 1 September 2011 21:59 (twelve years ago) link
the challop used to be that jack johnson was better than bitches brew, i kind of like it more personally, i agree that the swing back for Miles 70s records in general means that its hard to say its underrated any more
― D-40, Thursday, 1 September 2011 22:03 (twelve years ago) link
it's more pleasant to listen to and ~groovier~ than bitches brew, but bb is more dynamic and colorful

you notice that there's not really been any huge jumps in points?It's very very tight in the top 15, and 1 ballot could have changed the order. The top are very close. And the winner didn't win by much at all. So good luck guessing the top 15 nevermind the winner..
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Thursday, 1 September 2011 22:18 (twelve years ago) link
There are some jumps in points though, and the top five all score over 3000.

I think I'll take it through a bit more tonight so we can finish earlier tomorrow? I know some people have to leave work and miss the results. Or do you want to finish at #31?
Anyone for or against?

yay. but i think we need some other than a poll co-runner to agree!

or maybe have a spiritual hats poll as an interlude

I like several of the electric records better than Bitches Brew. In fact I think a lot of the non-album material on The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions better than the album. To me this doesn't feel like a challop so much as a result of history shaking out. Bitches Brew was once THE canonical electric miles because it was sort of the big breakout album, you know, 'important' and all that. At least that's my theory -- it became the standard because it was a watershed, but Miles improved on the concept later.
