jazzmatazz lists the Miles Davis "Live at the Cellar Door" 6CD set (3x2CD sets exactly) as being released in spring 2004

Miles Davis - Live at the Cellar Door - three 2-CD sets (Wed/Thu-Fri-Sat) (Columbia/Legacy) Spring 2004

? with Bartz, Jarrett, Henderson, DeJohnette, Moreira, and John McLaughlin. "Live-Evil" released some of this material.

I was just made aware that the set has already leaked into filesharing networks, so it must be ready for production. It does not look like a fake. Maybe promo sets will be out soon (Jack Johnson promo sets were distributed almost half a year before the official release)

Here is the discographical info:

Paul Tingen was able to 'borrow' recordings (promos, whatever) of all the Cellar Door material - direct from Columbia - when he was writing Miles Beyond : Electric Explorations of Miles Davis, 1967-1991. He discusses all of the Cellar Door sets (nearly all the tracks, as I recall) in the book.

I'm there too!!! :tup

Uhm ... not to mute anyone's enthusiasm, but I think Alan has listed this as "Spring 2004" for a looooooooooooooooooong time, so I am not sure this is news. Hopefully I am wrong.

I love this album. Snagged the SACD version too, which sounds amazing.

I emailed Paul Tingen a few months ago to see if he had any insight on the "real" release date and he did not. As Rooster mentions, tapes of this thing are out there, so it would seem this will ultimately be a reality.

I love electric Miles and aside from the Pete Cosey band, this is the outfit that does it for me. I can't wait to grab this!

hey, if they can do 2 miles boxes this year, they surely can do 2 next year ... right? i mean, columbia is known for strictly adhering to their release schedules ...

:lol:

seriously, though ... they could push back seven steps to berlin another year if it meant getting this out as soon as possible!!!!!

by the way ... where do all you guys get yr. promo discs and such. i live in a "socially retarded area" and find these things difficult to come by ... they probably show up on ebay, right ...?
