Fans have been waiting for it: the complete collection of Miles Davis Concerts at Montreux is finally available. A box of exception containing 10 DVDs and exclusive interviews with Claude Nobs, Carlos Santana and Herbie Hancock. "These live recordings, spanning nearly 30 years, not only show Miles' creativity but also the major influence he had and still has on today's music. I am very proud that by keeping all these recordings through the years and using only direct mixes, the magic of Montreux can be yours now."
