RE: [milesdavis] Ok, I'm gonna...

Isn't "best" a relative term? All three of those records have different personnel, a different group dynamic and are great for different reasons. On "Time" the group still has one foot in the acoustic Jazz tradition. "Evil" is all out electric but still with great interplay by Jarrett and DeJohnette. "Agartha" is like jungle funk meets Stockhausen. I'd buy them all chronologically to hear the evolution of Miles' concept.

Yes, I have listened to it, and I like it very much. What I wanna know is, what is his best live fusion album? Right now I'm down to "It's About that Time," "Live Evil," and "Agharta." I can't decide which of those three to get.
