Miles Davis: On The Corner version on vinyl LP in Remastered edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company Columbia in cooperation with Music On Vinyl on 31. July 2015.
In May 1972, Miles met again with Paul Buckmaster, an English classical cellist who was interested in pop music and experimental rock and introduced him to the music of Karlheinz Stockhausen. On June 1, in the midst of extraordinary confusion, Miles brought a number of musicians into the studio using a variety of instruments: a guitarist, a bassist, several drummers and percussionists, as well as three keyboards and a sitar and tablas from the "Indian Room." The structures devised by Paul Buckmaster were quickly forgotten, and when David Liebman came into the studio straight from the doctor's waiting room, he was placed in front of a microphone without headphones, although the sounds of bass, keys and electric guitar could be heard in the recording booth. His only clues were the key of E flat and the chaos created by the strangely punctuated polyrhythm of the drums. The album On The Corner was supplemented by other sessions that Teo Macero completed, and was to become an iconic album of the ambient and electro-jazz avant-garde.June 1, 1972 (a) Miles Davis (tpt); Dave Liebman (ss); John McLaughlin (el-g); Chick Corea (el-p); Herbie Hancock (el-p); Harold I.

Miles wanted to reconnect with a younger audience that had abandoned him for rock and funk, and the experimental album On The Corner was his answer. The covers leaned more on drums and bass and consisted of free improvisations in the studio. On The Corner isn't one of Miles' easiest records to listen to, but it may bear the most fruit. It's out now with a completely remastered sound. Review: , "A masterpiece of free funk, groovy, electronica-laden and only marginally associated with jazz." (musikexpress, August 2012)
