Walli, Nov 18, 2002

Miles Davis's outstanding soundtrack for a documentary on the boxer Jack Johnson stands alone very well as a strong piece of music. The album consists of two long, frenetic jams (25-minute-plus versions of "Right Off" and "Yesternow") and features fine playing by a sextet comprised of Davis's trumpet, Steve Grossman's soprano sax, electronic keyboardist Herbie Hancock, guitarist John McLaughlin, electric bassist Michael Henderson and drummer Billy Cobham. Jack Johnson was a hero to Miles Davis, and this album stands as his musical hommage to the legendary boxer.
