Reviewing for Rolling Stone in 1970, Langdon Winner said Bitches Brew shows Davis’s music expanding in “beauty, subtlety and sheer magnificence”, finding it “so rich in its form and substance that it permits and even encourages soaring flights of imagination by anyone who listens”.

honestly my life got so much easier when i finally managed to stop forcing myself to take the more difficult option for the sake of “being good” or thinking it somehow made the experience more complete, games are meant to be fun above all else so whatever helps u have the most fun is the best option

I've had this theory of opening it super wide, like posing it almost vertically where your hands are close to your body. this is the only acceptable compromise

Personnel: Lounge Lizards Evan Lurie – piano John Lurie – alto saxophone Marc Ribot – guitar, banjo Curtis Fowlkes – trombone Roy Nathanson – reeds Erik Sanko – bass Dougie Bowne – drums E.J. Rodriguez – percussion

The Allmusic review by Rovi Staff awarded the album 4½ stars stating “Thanks to Braxton’s skill as a composer, the results never devolve into mere cacophony, even in those passages where all 20 members — including an accordionist and a synthesizer player — are playing at once, as in the opening “Language Improvisations.” This is a powerful document of a little-appreciated side of Anthony Braxton’s work.”.
