tundra,

Did you specify "pre-fusion" because you don't like that era, or is it just not your thing on a rainy day? I only ask because there's some real division among Miles Davis fans when it comes to his electric stuff, as I'm sure you know. I don't know if I like any of Miles' stuff as much as, say, "So What" from "Kind of Blue", but I can't deny it, I love most of the 1969 - 1975 albums. "Bitches Brew" was my first exposure to anything even remotely jazz-related, and, partly due to the size of the joint I had just smoked, I was blown away that that kind of music had existed for so long without my knowing about it. It really opened my ears to jazz in general, which had to be done, given my typical ROCK!! upbringing.

just b/c it's better for rainy days.  I haven't listened to much of the fusion stuff, but I haven't gotten into what I have heard.  But I've never listened while high --that might make the difference.
