I really want to rate it higher because of the musicians involved and novelty factor of hearing Miles in this context, but the reality is that I would give it a 5 at best if I didn't recognize the musicians involved.

 

I also tend to agree, and also think Miles was a god, but I did pick his trumpet up out of a work trance, so his style is unique (or patterned into my brain).

I think Miles was a god, but have to basically agree with you on this one.

What a great pairing...I can hear Miles and John Lee but not so much Taj Mahal.

My thought exactly. I was listening to the end of it, and thinking "okay, it's got a John Lee beat, but the trumpet and jazzy sound? I must've missed Taj's input though. I wanna hear this again!

I'd never hoped to hear Hooker and Davis doing something together.

Another wonderful soundtrack for Miles was Ascenseur Pour L'Echafaud (1957). Recorded in Paris. ...also - this is soundtrack material - it might be given that consideration before you comment on its "repetitive" nature.
 
Just watched that subtitles and all last night, funny they played this song this morning with these comments...

  And let's not forget A Tribute to Jack Johnson, my favorite Miles / McLaughlin collaboration.

Perhaps you did.  There are plenty of folks out there today in all genres using circuit bent instruments...

Check out this site for some additional info:

I never knew Miles did any projects like this either.  I'll have to check out this movie for sure...
