Miles Davis — Live In Montreux (1973)
July 22, 2008
I’m not the first person, nor the last to wonder, is/was Miles Davis the coolest man on the planet. Well, Miles left our planet in 1991, but his rich musical legacy lives on. From Kind Of Blue to Sketches Of Spain to Bitches Brew to Down On The Corner and beyond, Miles was miles (sorry) above his peers. Here’s a show from ’73.
Mofro — New Album/Fall Dates
July 22, 2008
From Jambase.com: Jacksonville-based band JJ Grey & MOFRO, whose new Alligator album Orange Blossoms will be released on August 26, have announced dates for their upcoming fall tour. Orange Blossoms was recorded in north Florida and boasts some of Grey’s most profound and moving music to date. The album features 12 songs (including 11 Grey originals) inspired by Grey’s life experiences and visionary observations. Over the course of the album he moves effortlessly from gospel-tent fervor to Southern-fried rockers to deeply emotional soul. Orange Blossoms is a groove-driven masterpiece fueled by Grey’s gritty, smoldering vocals and intense, funk-infused guitar and keyboard work.

Stevie Wonder — Superstition
July 22, 2008
I remember seeing this as a kid. A very, very young kid. I remember thinking it was much cooler than that Bee Gees disco album that was popular at the time. It still is a lot cooler than that Bee Gees album.
Check out how hard that kid on the top step is rocking. He’s got it going on. I wonder where he is now.
