The Apex of Miles Davis' Electric Period: Agharta Blows Minds with Funk-Rock Jazz Thrills, Improvisational Surprises, Band Chemistry, and Rule-Breaking FreedomSourced from the Original Master Tapes: Mobile Fidelity's 180g 33RPM 2LP Set Presents 1975 Live Album in Audiophile Sound, Plays with a Scope That Matches the MusicThe capstone of Miles Davis' electric period, Agharta reigns as a funk-rock fireball - a blazing comet streaked energy and elan, a fearless organism feasting on adventure and freedom, a sevenheaded Godzilla stomping it's way through Osaka, Japan. Recorded on February 1, 1975 at Osaka Festival Hall at the first of a two-show stand, the double album offers an endless abundance of surprises and shifts - as well as a road-proven ensemble whose chemistry and abilities equal that of any of Davis' celebrated bands. If the true measure of jazz is the capacity to adapt to the moment and challenge perception, Agharta is consummate.Sourced from the original master tapes, housed in a Stoughton gatefold jacket, and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing in California, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition 180g 33RPM 2LP set of this epic live release presents it in audiophile sound on a domestic pressing for the first time. Offering greater degrees of separation, detail, and richness than the compressed CD editions and more clarity, openness, and presence than older vinyl versions, this reissue of the 1975 release helps bring the concert stage to your home. Just make sure your turntable and speakers are up to the challenge of Davis and Co.'s explosive performances - and producing the decibels they demand.1/4' / 15 IPS ANALOG MASTER DSD 256 ANALOG CONSOLE LATHENumbered 180g 33RPM Vinyl 2LPNUMBERED SPECIAL EDITIONTrack ListSide One:Prelude (Part I)Side Two:Prelude (Part II)MaiyshaSide Three:InterludeSide Four:Theme from Jack Johnson
