StLJN Saturday at the Movies: Miles Davis performs "Footprints" and "Jean Pierre"

It's been a while since we've had any video clips featuring Miles Davis, so today's offering will remedy that situation with two videos from two distinct periods in the trumpeter's career.

The first clip is a version of the Wayne Shorter composition "Footprints", recorded live in New York City in 1968. The band is Miles' classic quintet of the 1960s, featuring Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (bass) and Tony Williams (drums).

The second video is of a performance of "Jean Pierre," the deceptively simple funk tune that was one of Davis' concert staples during the last years of his life. There wasn't much information included with the clip, but best guess is that it's from the late 1980s.
