Miles in India May 31, 2009

In a startlingly original recreation of music associated with jazz legend Miles Davis, producer Bob Belden, with the help of Indian keyboardist and co-arranger Louiz Banks, has recast familiar themes from such landmark recordings as 'Bitches Brew,' 'In A Silent Way,' and 'Kind of Blue' with an East Meets West sensibility on 'Miles From India.' An ambitious project involving two dozen musicians from two separate continents recording in studios around the world, 'Miles From India' is a cross-cultural summit meeting that puts a provocative pan-global spin on Miles' classics. A variety of Indian and U.S. musicians (lineup varies) will perform music from the album.
