 The combination of Miles's early jazz influences, his early Rock and roll background from the late 1950s and early 1960s, and his innovative "melting pot of musical styles" concept, resulted in this recording.Miles followed this release in 1969 with the eponymously titled album, "Barry Miles", incorporating electric instruments including the electric piano.In 1971, Miles recruited his brother Terry Silverlight on drums along with guitarists Pat Martino and John Abercrombie to record his "White Heat" album which is regarded as one of the pioneering fusion jazz recordings.
