The Complete Jack Johnson Sessions, Columbia's latest

addition to the Miles Davis reissue series, documents the period

from January 27, 1970 to June 4, 1970 and contains unedited

takes from the sessions plus previously unreleased material.



A bit of background: Jack Johnson was the world heavyweight

boxing champion from 1908-1915. Miles felt an affinity toward

Johnson; not only because Miles himself boxed, but because of

the racial issues of being a Black man in America both men

faced. Director William Clayton made a documentary movie

about Johnson's life. A Tribute To Jack Johnson is the

soundtrack to the film. The album was released in the summer

of 1971.



A Tribute To Jack Johnson was a continuation of Miles' musical

direction away from more traditional jazz forms. The densely

layered music of Bitches Brew, recorded in August of 1969, was

stripped down and became funkier and more groove oriented.

The music also incorporated more elements of rock with the

guitar work of John McLaughlin. For listeners whose only Miles

Davis recording is Kind Of Blue and want to hear some "electric

Miles," The Complete Jack Johnson Sessions may be the

starting point to work your way backward, as well as forward,

through the Miles Davis catalog.



Disc One: February-March 1970





Disc One begins with five takes of the song "Willie Nelson,"

which was released on the Directions album. The song is

named after the country singer. Miles loved Willie's singing; he

thought that his behind-the-beat phrasing resembled the way

that he played trumpet. Although the various takes of "Willie

Nelson" have differences in tempo and the amount of time Miles

and the other soloists play, the real evolution of the piece is

shown in Jack DeJohnette's drumming. He continuously

increases the complexity of his patterns. What started out as

simple timekeeping on the early takes later becomes highly

syncopated and intensely propulsive with constant rhythmic

variations.



The unedited takes also reveal guitarist Sonny Sharrock's

presence on the sessions. His appearance along with John

McLaughlin marks the first time that Miles used two guitar

players. Pianist Chick Corea uses an Echoplex (a tape driven

delay) on his electric piano, and Sharrock uses one on his

guitar as well. At times it is difficult to distinguish between the

two of them. This may have factored in Sharrock’s playing on

the track being questioned at one time.



Along with Jack Johnson, the box set contains a series of tracks

that are named after other boxers. The first is "Johnny Bratton."

The first take has shades of the Lifetime version of

McLaughlin's "One Word" (from Turn It Over ), in part due to

McLaughlin's chord voicings and DeJohnette sounding [a little]

like Tony Williams. The second take sounds like a band of

teenagers practicing in the basement on Saturday morning.

Miles at the end of the take says, "I couldn't even play on that

deal." The third take has a slower tempo and a funkier feel,

which gives Miles something to sink his teeth into. However, the

repetitive pattern starts to wear after awhile.



The last track, named after boxer Archie Moore, is an

unexpected surprise featuring John McLaughlin playing a

straight-up blues! McLaughlin may play bluesy sometimes, but

it's rare that you hear him play like this. The take has no horns:

just guitar, bass, and drums. John is on this one like white on

rice. This is a real treat for McLaughlin fans!
