Produced with loving care by Claude Nobs, founder of the Montreux Jazz Festival, with no edits or overdubs, this document of Miles Davis's Montreux performances shows through never-before-released material how Miles and company transformed his music live, with their fire, invention, and interplay. The list of sidemen on these dates is a who's who of today's superstars, including saxophonist Dave Liebman, guitarists John Scofield and Robben Ford, keyboardists Adam Holzman and Kei Akagi, bassist Michael Henderson, and percussionist Mtume. Most of the music on these discs features versions of Davis's fusion "hits." The funky and R&B-ish ditty "Ife" and the bouncy "Calypso Frelimo" are rendered with more gusto than their studio versions, as are the in-the-pocket, mid-'80s tunes "Star People" and "New Blues." A package this big has more than a few surprises, however. Chaka Khan lends her powerful pipes to Davis's unique cover of the Michael Jackson sleeper, "Human Nature," and "Al Jarreau" is an upbeat (though too short) tribute to the great vocalise master.

Tuu takes the listener on a mysterious journey inspired by the hidden teachings of Tibetan Buddhism. Seven ethereal, trance-inducing aural tapestries paint a deep focus wavescape that will stimulate the synapses of World/Ambient/Electronic fans. Like other powerful ambient music, the transcendental works of Terma don't have a beginning or an end they serve as a pathway to a state of mind.
The first full collaboration between Tuu leader Martin Franklin and flautist Nick Parkin takes a turn into darker terrain than previous TUU works featuring Parkin as a sideman…

"A Passion Play" is the sixth studio album by Jethro Tull, released in 1973. Like its predecessor, "Thick as a Brick" (1972), it is a concept album the theme being the spiritual journey of one man in the afterlife. Alongside Thick As A Brick, 1973′s A Passion Play is Jethro Tull’s most overtly Progressive and conceptual release, featuring a complex poetic narrative framed by the most adventurous music of the band’s career. The album offers dazzling virtuoso instrumental passages, evocative synthesiser sequences, and fuses Folk, Jazz and Rock influences in a strikingly unique, wholly Jethro Tull way. A Passion Play (An Extended Performance) features new Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree) mix of the album, alongside Steven Wilson mix of the infamous ‘Chateau Disaster’ recordings that preceded it.
