Yes, it's amazing the way that Columbia treated the Plugged Nickel stuff, withholding everything for years and then only releasing part of it, truncated as well. The version of Green Dolphin Street is IMHO the best thing the second great quartet ever did.
The 1969 so called "Lost Band" (because it was supposedly not reorded) did have some bootlegs. I have two, both recorded in Paris (can't tell whther it's the same session or not). At any rate, GDS is not on either and I'd be very surprised to hear this band play it as at the time they were doing very contemporary stuff.
The TV show was "Miami Vice", where he played a pimp.

I wonder if it's on tape anywhere. - Dmitry 10:49:12 05/22/04 (4)
I'd love to watch that episode of M.V.
Do you have it?
I've got a video of Miles in Milan in 67, I believe[have to check at home].

  No, I don't have the episode but remember being psyched to see Miles in a drasmatic setting. I do have the video from 1959 on laserdisc, where he introduced "So What" and played three tunes with the Gil Evans Orchestra. Other Miles videos I have are the DVDs of the recent documentary film and concerts from Paris, 1969, Montreal, 1975, and Montreuex, 1991, with Quincy Jones. In an interview once Miles commented on his unwillingness to play the older material, saying, "If I had to play that stuff I'd probably have a heart attack or something". Prophetic, indeed.
  I also have over 100 Miles albums and CDs.

    The Montreal concert is of course from 1985 and the Paris concert is of course from 1989.

      I bet one of them isn't the Montreux performances box. He he.

        I wqas tempted but 21 CDs at that price is too much even for me.
