PANTHALASSA The Music of Miles Davis

It seems like Bill Laswell basically took some of the more intense versions of Miles' compositions during his psychedelic era (1969-1974), and stitched them together with the help of 24 contemporary jazz greats, to make four incredible pieces, re-mixed and featuring nine of his best pieces, featuring a dawn version of 'In a Silent Way', and a mesmerising Agharta prelude, turned on its head ending the second mix. His writing at this time was so tight, and his horn so integrated into the mix that it comments on a time period and a view of the creative process, more than an artist showcase. Sexy.
