This is one of my favorite wayne shorter compositions. I like the version on Miles Smiles better because of the latin groove in 4/4 time but this is still great.

Yes....that 4/4 treatment on Miles Smiles is an example of what they now call "metric modulation"....
You have to realize that this band would change their interpretation of these tunes from night to night...to keep things "fresh"...."Footprints" is one of the relatively few originals by his sidemen that they regularly performed live @ that time....
Elvin was another ... ( 1 month ago by MikeNichols50)
Elvin was another great player...the Coltrane "Classic Quartet" was another unique band that only comes along once in a lifetime....
The Miles "sound" was much different from the Coltrane sound...as Herbie said, Miles liked things to be "slick"....and the Coltrane sound
was much more of a "raw" sound...so, McCoy would have not sounded "right" in Miles' band, and [probably] Herbie would have developed differently under Coltane's influence....
it is interesting ... ( 1 month ago by greatersiren)
it is interesting to wonder how things might have been if herbie had worked w/ 'trane instead. i do know that miles did not like tyner's playing, nor dolphy's.
That is correct.. ... ( 1 month ago by MikeNichols50)
That is correct...1st of all, remember that McCoy is left-handed, so his left hand might be a lot stronger than the "normal" person's, which may explain his comping style....
Also, McCoy was much more strongly influenced by Coltrane, so the style that he developed by the time he left Coltrane was more of a
"departure" from the Bud Powell-style bebop approach....In contrast, Herbie, as Miles said, was the "next step" [and, perhaps, the logical conclusion] after Monk and Powell...
i didn't know that ... ( 1 month ago by greatersiren)
i didn't know that mccoy was left-handed, and you are right that that might explain why his left hand is so strikingly active.
herbie and mccoy are definitely my two favorite piano players; i have a slight preference for mccoy, but i think that's a matter of personal taste since they're both fabulous.
still, they're both more harmonically-oriented than earlier players, but herbie is more economical

Miles is such a prima donna... walkin off stage all the damn time. Great player, horrible human being.
Miles didn't need ... ( 1 month ago by 1buffalocalvary)
Miles didn't need to be on stage all the time. That's what a prima donna would need. Miles played his part and then let the other musicians' light shine. That's UNselfishness. He wasn't about people looking at him, it was about the sound of the music. To me, it's always better when an artist gets out of the way of the art. The art can raise your consciousness, while focussing on the artist's ego can take you down.

Although Miles really was weird and could be awful against other people. If you've read the biography about Mike Stern (among others) you'll know a thing or two.

That's exactly right about McCoy and Herbie. Totally different, equally brilliant. The fact that both of these brilliant groups were playing at exactly the same time and doing totally different though equally stunning things with the music shows just how magnificent an idiom Jazz is/was. And you still had Monk and Mingus making their own brilliant moves, and many others. Those were brilliant times.
What a gorgeous, ... ( 2 weeks ago by cavaleer)
What a gorgeous, brilliant performance. Jazz is such a state of mind, such a state of muscular-ideology. This group's sound was every bit as brilliant and distinct as Coltrane's Quartet and Ellington's Orchestra.
Miles was so dam cool!!!! Just an iceberg. Haha. He just walked off the stage. You have to be The Man to do that, plain and simple. That's that American Swagger. haha
That's a muscular-ideology.
