I am a huge Jackie McLean fan and never understood why this one has such bad rep. Love it and I especially think his style blends excellent with Rashied Ali’s drumming. 

Same here, I LOVE it, and .....no influence at all, but a coincidence.....that dramatic effect of the voice, spoken and sung on the title track ....such a thing will be on our upcoming album. 

And yeah. Though this music might have been recorded almost 60 years ago, people still tend to not understand it. But it´s such a natural thing.....it only needs listening.....it´s beautiful !!!!

That would be me to an extent. I struggle with Miles' collaborations with Gil Evans. To the point I just don't listen to them. Every now and then I'll put them on and it's always the same reaction..."nah, not for me"

Yeah, it´s  astonishing....so many people scream over the collaborations with Gil Evans, and here we are some people with big ears, but obviously not prepared for that kind of music...... I love the melody of Concierto de Aranjuez, but not in that setting....Miles is more than okay.....but it would have been great with a small group with guitar. I love "Aranjuez" as a melody really much and even quote from it in my composition "Miss RA´s Choice" since the girl I dedicated it to, was born in Spain, so it´s just a musical "nod" towards the place of her arrival (....hey she claims to be Sun Ra´s spiritual daughter and that´s why she doesn not say "birth country"...but "place of arrival (on earth) 😍)

I like it much more than let´s say "Page One". Especially Andrew Hill brings it to live. I love Joe Henderson, but especially interesting is that "rhythm section" (I hate that word !) with such tough players, who always have thrilled me.
