2022.12.12 David Soldier on Miles Davis 1974 - 3 of 3

Mitch Goldman's Deep Focus this Monday (12/12) is on Miles Davis with guest David Soldier. Soldier's punk chamber music, elephant orchestra (yes, the elephants play the instruments), Most Unwanted Song (which we absolutely love!) and tons of other off-center music had to come from someplace, but where? What inspires an emerging composer to take such brash risks and leaps of musical derring-do? Could it be from hearing one of Miles Davis' most outré bands at a formative age? Could there be a recording of such a show? Could there be a photograph of our young composer in the front row of the audience at such a show?!? COULD THAT BE HIM IN THIS PHOTO? The Shaboo Inn, in a remote corner of Connecticut, might have been the smallest venue Miles played in 1974 (he would play Carnegie Hall 2 months later). Even at that, even after canceling the first of 3 nights because Miles was too, er, "distracted," only 50 or 60 people showed up. So the stakes were low, Miles was high and the band (as ferocious a Murderers' Row as Miles ever assembled) was ready to eviscerate the songs that had been in the book for the previous 5 years. This one! THIS ONE, I tell ya! Tune in to WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR HD-1 or wkcr.org this Monday from 6pm to 9pm NYC time. Next week it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast, along with hundreds of other episodes, on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/ #WKCR #JazzAlternatives #DeepFocus #MilesDavis #DavidSoldier #DaveSoldier #MitchGoldman #JazzRadio #JazzInterview #JazzPodcast Photo credit: no publishing information available.
