I'm not a big fan of excessively long songs, but when they are as good as this, it changes my mind in a hurry. Miles Davis has made so much amazing music in his life, it's just remarkable, but this album from 1971 that was titled "Jack Johnson (Original Soundtrack Recording)" is one of my favorites.
"It was April 7, 1970. John McLaughlin, awaiting Miles's
arrival, began improvising riffs on his guitar, and was shortly joined
by Michael Henderson and Billy Cobham. Miles arrived at last and
began his solo at about 2:19.
"Right Off" is constructed by Teo Macero from several takes and a solo by
Davis recorded in November 1969. It contains a riff from Sly and the
Family Stone's "Sing a Simple Song."
