Since it's billed as "Directions in Music by Miles Davis," it should come as little surprise that Filles de Kilimanjaro is the beginning of a new phase for Miles, the place that he begins to dive headfirst into jazz-rock fusion. It also happens to be the swan song for his second classic quintet, arguably the finest collective of musicians he ever worked with, and what makes this album so fascinating is that it's possible to hear the breaking point -- though his quintet all followed him into fusion (three of his supporting players were on In a Silent Way), it's possible to hear them all break with the conventional notions of what constituted even adventurous jazz, turning into something new. According to Miles, the change in "direction" was as much inspired by a desire to return to something earthy and bluesy as it was to find new musical territory, and Filles de Kilimanjaro bears him out. Though the album sports inexplicable, rather ridiculous French song titles, this is music that is unpretentiously adventurous, grounded in driving, mildly funky rhythms and bluesy growls from Miles, graced with weird, colorful flourishes from the band. Where Miles in the Sky meandered a bit, this is considerably more focused, even on the three songs that run over ten minutes, yet it still feels transitional. Not tentative (which In the Sky was), but certainly the music that would spring full bloom on In a Silent Way was still in the gestation phase, and despite the rock-blues-n-funk touches here, the music doesn't fly and search the way that Nefertiti did. But that's not a bad thing -- this middle ground between the adventurous bop of the mid-'60s and the fusion of the late '60s is rewarding in its own right, since it's possible to hear great musicians find the foundation of a new form. For that alone, Filles de Kilimanjaro is necessary listening.
_________________________________________
For me also this has been a longtime-favorite, even though, as other reviewers have said, not often recognized by everyone. In all aspects this marks a transition. The Fender Rhodes is used here for the first time, and to great effect--Herbie Hancock knows what he is doing, maximizing the funky effect and bell-like clarity of the instrument by not playing it too much. A tune like "Tout de Suite" showcases Hancock's rich economy: he uses the Rhodes almost like a percussive instrument. On "Frelon Brun," the Rhodes plays a different part in the rhythm section, almost as an electric bass, and it is funky, y'all.
The album is also a transition in terms of composition, as was "Sorcerer," recorded the year before. The five Davis-originals foreshadow what was to come, and the songs Wayne Shorter wrote for that earlier album seem to have influenced Davis here. Polyrhythmic and polyharmonic (is that a word?), these songs, more than those on "Sorcerer," played with more or less traditional jazz instrumentation, look ahead to the kind of free jazz/funk/rock displayed on "In A Silent Way" and "Bitches Brew."
My favorite is "Petits Machins," which combines just about everything I like about this music and particularly these musicians. The theme is great and played with tremendous energy. Davis's trumpet initially sounds cool and detached, but the intellectual sparsity gives way to great emotion. He makes it sounds so easy, seemingly playing beyond all measure while being in total control. Typically Miles, the final bars of the song repeat the theme with immense sadness, as if the dream is over, and I have the feeling he is quoting these lines in 1986, on "Tutu" (listen to "Tomaas"). The song's drumtrack alone is worth the price of the CD--Tony Williams does all of this, I think, on just a bass, a snare, and a ride. Whatever it was that made Davis hire him in 1962 or 63, when Williams was, you know, like seventeen years old, it was heaven-sent.
I really can't tell you how much I like this album, and perhaps this is not a CD for the multitudes, but you might give it a try. Certainly these are "Directions in Music."
