Some of my favorite lyrics ...

Don't know how long I would have been able to keep it together if I were at this show....

I'm eager, young, and qualified.

I've got some of their stuff in my library. They have a knack for hooks.

I'm back on guitars:

Mile Davis Acid Funk: Prelude from Agharta with Sonny Fortune's mad raving saxworks, dual rocking heavy feedback wahwah guitars from Pete Cosey and Reggie Lucas funky laid Michale Henderson bass. A musical cornerstone of my latter psychedelic years. Things really cook in part 2.
Turn this up as loud as you can.

(from wiki : )
According to Robert Christgau, Agharta was "the most commonly disparaged of Davis's many '70s double-LPs". In his 1981 review of the album, he called it "angry, dissociated, funky, and the best Davis music since Jack Johnson." Christgau felt that Davis relied on his band's "virtuosity", which was "the ground of four apparently unstructured segments". He commended drummer Al Foster for "moving from body to spirit rhythms in an effortless, guileless show of chops", Sonny Fortune for "the best reed playing on a Davis record in this decade", and praised guitarist Pete Cosey as "simply astonishing—the noises he produces for the second half of side one comprise some of the greatest free improvisations ever heard in a 'jazz'-'rock' context."[10]

In a review upon its 1991 reissue, Bill Milkowski of Down Beat magazine called Agharta a "landmark electric album" that inspired "a whole generation of musicians who became intrigued by the possibilities of getting past the notes and dealing more in catharsis than precision on their instruments." Milkowski credited Cosey's "wild [guitar] excursions" for "spawning an entire school of 'sick' guitar playing" and asserted that Fortune's "urgent, angular sax lines on top of" Foster, Henderson, and Lucas' syncopated grooves predated "Steve Coleman and Greg Osby's M-Base experiements by 10 years."[11]

In The Rolling Stone Album Guide (2004), J. D. Considine called the album's music "alternately audacious, poetic, hypnotic, and abrasive", and said that it "has held up better than much of [Davis'] '70s concert recordings."[15] Allmusic's Thom Jurek felt that "there is simply nothing like Agharta in the canon of recorded music. This is the greatest electric funk-rock jazz record ever made — period."[6] Sputnikmusic's Hernan M. Campbell found the performance "electrifying" and wrote that the album "displays some incredibly dextrous musicianship all throughout, especially from Pete Cosey who practically steals the show with his deploys of Hendrix-inspired electrical distorting devices."
