Start here

A dense, funk-and-electronics landmark divisive on release and later revered. Bold and influential. A cult masterpiece. Released in 1972, it's one of Miles Davis's later high points.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
