Miles Davis at the Isle of Wight Festival

Miles Davis at the Isle of Wight Festival

Nope, he won’t be playing a posthumous show at this year’s festival, the title refers to the 1970 festival. Although not quite Portsmouth (well, maybe he came through to get the ferry) but I’ve been listening to the live recording of Miles Davis and band from this festival. Despite it being a little before my time I can’t begin to imagine how incredible it must have been to see him play in the flesh (let alone The Doors, Hendrix, etc!) with a crowd of 600,000!

Did anyone here go? Please post your memories. If you didn’t go or were too young have a watch below, the other parts of the performance are also on YouTube too.
