In A Similarly Silent Way

Found this, which I think is a compilation of 3 tracks from the same tv show

& if nobody's said Santana's Lotus it is pretty great in a liquid electric jazz way hich may not be exactly referent to that particular Miles lp but fits into the continuum. & has Leon Thomas onboard.

Donald Byrd's Ethiopian Knights is pretty great too.

& Sonny Sharrock's Paradise is more balmy funk stuff with clouds of noise guitar . Again not sure if it does directly reference IASW but is a bit of an outlier in his catalogue for that balmy sunny funk stuff. That extended Whiskey A Go GO by the Herbie Mann group is also interesting since its that band from the turn of the 70s with some versions of tracks from the Sharrock's more avant late 60s lps being played.

Lego My Ego the bonus disc that acme with Yerself Is Steam at one point had a version of Very Sleepy Rivers that went in and out of a track they called Shh Peaceful . I thought it was the version from this set so should be this one. Haven't listened to this through to see how much it shows

I did find Mercury Rev mixed into various eras of Miles very well anyway.

Not obscure, but after listening to In A Silent Way since age 17, I loved discovering Freddie Hubbard's Red Clay a few years ago.

totally. don't sleep on Straight Life either

Nice one tyler - like that.

Do we need an ambient Americana thread? I guess the Fahey one does the trick but still...

not a bad idea — there's that "wide open desert music" thread, but that might be slightly more specific

Got to say the 2 keyboard version of the Allman Brothers with Chuck Leavell on electric piano and only Dickie on guitar doing “Elizabeth Reed” off the Wipe the Windows live album has a silent way vibe. Worth checking out if unfamiliar with the take.

one of the biggest miles rips ever; intentionally so. still good imo-

did you know our friend mark is a fairly hardcore scientologist?

Yup but I still listen to Miles too, despite the latter's own personal shit

Huh. I didn’t know that. I guess he might be responsible for Van Morrison giving a special thanks to L Ron Hubbard in the liner notes to Inarticulate Speech of the Heart.
