Title: Forward-thinking or not, this is still a cluttered mess
Review: Among today's practitioners of sampling and electronic music, Miles Davis' "On The Corner" is generally accorded reverential status as being a kindred precursor. "Herbie Hancock & The Headhunters", recorded just a year after "On The Corner", is a much more musically and conceptionally realized offshoot. As Herbie Hancock made clear in the Headhunters' liner notes, Miles Davis didn't give his musicians any scales to work from. Thus, "On The Corner" is little more than heavily edited, random noises
