Yup, that’s a brilliant series of gigs.
I’ve posted a set of links to some of the YouTube videos of the concerts of the 70s on a Miles Davis thread, in case these are also of interest.

In my opinion,
All the “graduates” of the Miles Davis ensembles received an excellent education …

Locked Down Jazz Appreciation - Album of the Week
9: Miles Davis: Bitches Brew (Columbia)
At the end of the 60s, the ever-restless Miles Davis sought to change his musical
direction again. Eyeing new sonic horizons and showing an interest in rock and funk
aesthetics, he began using electronic instruments and creating expansive grooves driven
by a backbeat. A first major milestone in this development was the epochal Bitches Brew,
a sprawling double-album released in 1970. Using a large ensemble that included British
guitarist John McLaughlin and three electric keyboardists (Joe Zawinul, Chick Corea and
Larry Young), Davis set in motion the fusion movement that dominated jazz thinking in
the 70s. Much of the music was shaped in post-production, heavily edited by Miles’
producer, Teo Macero, but Bitches Brew became hugely influential, ushering in the age of
jazz-rock. Now almost half a century old, it still sounds like the music of the future.
Key song: ‘Spanish Key’

Or for something a little less challenging…
The Alan Broadbent Trio’s previous Savant release, ‘New York Notes’ (SCD2166), received rave reviews in the international press. The Guardian wrote, “The bubbling stream of notes is both unpredictable and inevitable, and following its twists and turns is a joy.” Couleurs Jazz (France) proclaimed, “Behold! A precious gem of a jazz recording.”
“Trio in Motion” finds Broadbent, Billy Mintz and Harvie S reunited in the pianist’s New York apartment-studio recording music that is spontaneous, surprising, possessing a sly humour and emotionally involving.
Broadbent received two Grammy awards and has collaborated with Natalie Cole (Unforgettable), Herbie Hancock, Sonny Rollins, Diana Krall and Paul McCartney. Each tune on the setlist is imbued with a warm intimacy and the refreshing, slightly piquant glow of intensity which warms both the listener’s heart and mind.
Personnel: Alan Broadbent (piano), Harvie S (acoustic bass), Billy Mintz (drums)
