Originally released in 1974, Big Fun presents music from three different phases of Miles Daviss early-seventies “electric” period. Sides one and four (Great Expectations and Lonely Fire) were recorded three months after the Bitches Brew sessions and incorporate sitar, tambura, tabla, and other Indian instruments. Ife was recorded after the 1972 On the Corner sessions, and the framework is similar to tracks from that record. Recorded in March 1970, Go Ahead John is an outtake from Daviss Jack Johnson sessions.
