Descargar vídeo Duración: 9:58

"Right Off" recorded April 1970 featuring Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin,Billy Cobham[replacing Buddy Miles] and Michael Henderson on Fender bass,with Steve Grossman on sax. Steve was a teen when he started to play for Miles. After seeing the famed Jimi Hendrix 1970 New Year's Concert at the Fillmore East, Miles was impressed with the performance,and sold on the concept of downsizing his band to power what he had referred to as the "new shit". Miles wanted Henderson to hold the group together and act as a reference point,while McLaughlin was to serve both as a catalytic driving force and counter point. Miles,who had admired Sugar Ray Robinson for his ability and cool demeanor, had given these sessions a lot of thought, wanting the music to capture the shuffling movement that boxers made, a hypnotic train like rhythm. After a contentious and somewhat unfocused project start,once the recordings were wrapped,Teo Macero,the musical director, reportedly called the results "dynamite" Miles was regularly working out at Gleason's boxing gym and was in great condition[and musical form] for the jam, which arguably contained the best solo of his career, to wit: 02:23 on this tape in B flat.
