9 out of 10 stars – Spin Magazine


“Bitches Brew and its legendary and iconic status has not waned one iota since the celebrated release of the set in 1970. To honor its 40th anniversary, Columbia/Legacy has completely outdone everyone else … by releasing three different, exceedingly tempting, configurations.”

Editors’ Pick of the Week – Jet Magazine


“… like Elvis’ and Jimi’s albums, (Bitches Brew) ranks among the greatest and most inspired of the rock era, more than deserving of renewed attention every half decade.” – Blurt


“Representing one of the crucial points at which Davis led jazz into new territory, the sprawling, densely atmospheric 1970 album Bitches Brew celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2010 and is given the deluxe treatment it so richly deserves.”
Grade: 9 out of 10 – Under The Radar


“From white to black, through almost every shade, (Bitches Brew)’s multi-racial cast and challenging music pointed to a way forward not just for jazz but for America.” – Clash Magazine
