Notes: This was Miles Davis' return to live music. Previous to this concert, Miles had supposedly retired.
Apparently retirement didn't agree with Miles, so he recorded 'The Man With The Horn.' The night of
this concert, Miles was recovering from pneumonia, and you can tell. However, the soon-to-be-stellar
band more than made up for Miles' illness by giving the performances of their lives.

On my way up the road to the Hollywood bowl, I looked over and realized I was walking right next to
Chick Corea, Al DiMeola, and Gayle Moran (Chick's girlfriend at the time). I said hello, and they
were very nice in return.

My seats were incredible box seats, dead center in the Hollywood Bowl, in front of the mixing console.
This recording came out as one of my best quality shows from the Nakamichi recording days. I gave this
recording an A+ based on its sonic qualities -- sounding better than a standard studio release.
