Miles Davis - What It Is: Montreal 7/7/83 2xLP Vinyl Record (2022 Record Store Day Exclusive)

In celebration of Record Store Day 2022, Miles Davis has released the Record Store Day Exclusive of "What It Is: Montreal 7/7/83”! For the second RSD drop of 2022, various artists and their respective labels have set out to celebrate the culture of the independently owned record stores, bringing together fans, artists, and thousands of independent record stores around the world. With a wide range of releases and limited stock, be sure to check out Popcultcha's full catalogue of RSD exclusives here.

This double LP release features one of Miles Davis’ final great bands: John Scofield on guitar, Bill “The Other Bill Evans” Evans on saxophones, flute and electric piano, Darryl Jones on bass, Al Foster on drums, and percussionist Mino Cinelu. Miles was back in amazing form (“incandescent and iridescent as ever,” critic Greg Tate noted), when he mounted the stage at the Theatre St-Denis during the Festival International De Jazz De Montreal in July 1983, and this revelatory performance has been lovingly mixed and mastered for its first ever release, on vinyl for Record Store Day 2022. (A CD will be part of the next edition of the Miles Davis Bootleg Series, focusing on the 1981-1985 period, later in the year.)

What It Is includes tracks from that year’s release Star People, the Marcus Miller tune “Hopscotch” and the song “Jean-Pierre” that appeared on 1982’s We Want Miles. The recordings of “What It Is” and “That’s What Happened” were so well thought of by Miles that he utilized them for his 1984 release Decoy, but in heavily edited form and this release would include the first release of them in complete form. Packaged in beautiful gatefold packaging, the album features liner notes penned by the incomparable music journalist Greg Tate and represent some of his final writing.
