[MUSIC] Miles Davis - The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions (2001) (Jazz, Fusion) [FLAC/CUE, 1.13GB]

I noticed that someone else has already uploaded the album proper, but this box set contains too much good music so I had to share.

In A Silent Way is often cited as the first album of Miles Davis' "electric period", even though it is not his first album to feature electric instruments. The Complete Sessions is actually music recorded by Davis from late 1968 through early 1969, and encompasses more than just the actual sessions for IaSW. The songs here are presented more or less chronologically, so as you listen to the three discs of this box set you can hear the musical progression from post-bop/"normal" jazz to the more out there, spacey, ambient and electric textures that would dominate the rest of Davis' career.

The version of this box set has individual .flac and .cue files for each disc rather than being split by track. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to people who only want to download individual tracks, but this is how I received this collection.
