Eagle Rock Entertainment is proud to announce the release on DVD of Miles Davis “That’s What Happened – Live In Germany 1987” [Cat No EREDV731] on 13 April 2009. This is a sought after and previously unreleased Miles Davis concert, and the footage includes two rare cover versions.
This concert, filmed in Munich in 1987, followed the release of his Grammy Award winning album Tutu and the set list features two tracks from that record, the title track and “Portia”, plus his unique arrangements of Michael Jackson’s “Human Nature” and Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time”.
From the mid-fifties to his death in the early nineties, Miles Davis was universally recognised as one of the most innovative musicians working in Jazz. He was also one of the most popular with his albums regularly breaking into the pop charts and he picked up a total of eight Grammy Awards. He also launched the careers of many Jazz musicians including Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, Billy Cobham, John McLaughlin and many more.

The Bonus Features on this release offer up a 30 minute interview with Miles Davis filmed in 1987, and also a feature on Miles and his Art.
Both “genius” and “legend” are words often bandied around all too eagerly to describe musicians but, for such a talent as Miles Davis, they are the only words that will suffice. “That’s What Happened – Live In Germany 1987” underlines exactly why Davis’ legacy and influence live on.
