For me, the whole "Bitches Brew" period was a necessary step in where "jazz" had to go. The other "free" players had not caught up with the electric / electronic developments that the rock players were mastering (at least a few did; like Hendrix). Miles brought them together; blurring lines and violating the boundaries in service of a greater vision.While there may have been a few moments during "Bitches Brew" that may have meandered a bit, the whole point of that recording was that it was a big risk. A gamble by walking into musical territory that had not yet been created. But while the recordings were great, that situation works best when it is performed live.The Isle or Wight performance exemplified this marvelously. All the musicians walked on stage for that gig and delivered with no idea what was going to happen. Let's face it; few musicians have both the courage and the skill to do that. This performance was exemplary of what could be done.One thing I particularly liked about it was how Miles led the band. In this he had few peers. I saw Miles live, and his band leading skills were the best I ever saw of anyone (Frank Zappa came a close second). A single phrase or an inflection on a single note, and the whole band reacted, seemingly as a reflex or instinct, and the direction of the music changed.I enjoyed some of the interview parts of the DVD. I was, ironically, glad that Stanley Crouch was given the chance to vent his feelings (even if I vehemently disagree with him - he's entitled to his opinions, despite the danger that they may unduly influence others). But once all the talk was out of the way, the actual performance itself was presented in its entirety to stand up on its own merit.What Miles Davis accomplished during that phase was both unprecedented, and musically as beautiful as it was dangerous and insurrectionist - as real as love and revolution.
