It's been over 20 years and we still don't really have the complete Bitches Brew sessions. We know there are plenty of unedited session reels due to the existence of the bootlegs on youtube and elsewhere.
But even for the official 40th anniversary box, they came up with complete alternate takes of Spanish Key and John McLaughlin, both of which are good, and neither of which are here.
What else is there?
