by Kevin Johnson Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Forty years after it’s original release, Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew has been re-mastered and re-released in a 3-disc set, with the original album and six bonus tracks over 2 CD’s as well as a DVD of the previously unreleased Copenhagen concert from November 4, 1969.

The psychedelic, electrified album was Davis’ first to go gold and is held together by Dave Holland’s and Harvey Brooks’ experimental bass lines, including the iconic bass riff to the title track.
