This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

There's also the story of the younger Crosby being high & seeing the Coltrane Quartet Live & being just pinned to the wall by it. So he goes to the restroom ...& Trane comes in - still playing @ max intensity - giving Dave no relief...

The transition into “Turnaroundphrase” is remarkable; Miles drops a whiff of the melody, Henderson begins layering the bass riff overtop and the band falls in line as if by crossfade. This set feels like a single organism – just an unbroken explosion of sound loosely based around the skeletal structure of familiar riffs. A subdued organ + percussion intro to “For Dave” is our first cooldown of the set and it’s executed beautifully, setting a moody backdrop for a superb soprano solo from Liebman as Cosey heightens the intensity with a few well-timed jabs on electric 12-string. Some great interplay between Cosey and Miles (on organ) ratchets up the intensity until a monster turn from Gaumont brings it to a peak and Miles surveys the plateau with a remarkable wah’d horn solo – listen for that squeaky pedal as things turn quiet.
Miles brings the tune to a close with a series of ultra-precise stop/starts, each emerging more gargantuan than the next until a heavy percussion duel between Cosey and Mtume puts it to rest.
As essential as it gets."

yeah, what Flash said -"what a boob"!
the story told below, involving Graham Nash is probably the accurate one...and yes probably Cros was just not in the right headspace, and must've had different expectations. (although, if he had other expectations, clearly wasn't very familiar with Miles!)
...so...What a boob!
