Miles Davis and On The Corner
From James Brown to Stockhausen, the influences which fed into Miles Davis's 1972 album On The Corner are explored by Matthew Sweet and guests, 50 years after its release. Bill Laswell, Chelsea Carmichael, Kevin LeGendre and Paul Tingen join Matthew to celebrate an album that was dismissed by some jazz critics as evidence of Davis 'selling out' when it came out, but that has gone on to be appreciated as an important and influential milestone.
Producer: Torquil MacLeod
Bill Laswell's many recordings and productions include Panthalassa: The Music of Miles Davis 1969-1974.
Chelsea Carmichael is a saxophonist and composer. Her most recent album is The River Doesn't Like Strangers.
Paul Tingen is the author of Miles Beyond: The Electric Explorations of Miles Davis, 1967-1991.
Kevin Le Gendre is one of the presenters of BBC Radio 3's J to Z broadcast Saturdays at 5pm
You can hear Matthew and Kevin exploring the politics, history and music which fed into Marvin Gaye's What's Going On in a previous episode of Free Thinking https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0011l7t
