I decided to pick up a couple of his cd's, and realized what a bonehead I have been. I purchased "Kind Of Blue" and "Bitches Brew" - and that just BLEW ME AWAY....So I also purchased "Jack Johnson" and the complete sessions box set "In A Silent Way" - and those blew me away as well. So I seem to be drawn to his fusion/rock period of the early 70s. To cut to the chase - does anyone have recordings from this 1969-1975 era ?? If there is a particular recording of "Bitches Brew", that would be the bomb ! I'm sorry I have no other Miles to trade, but I certainly can use any info to what other recordings (commercially as well) would be considered superior in his fusion/rock period. Yes - feeling stupid after many years of ignoring him, so if anyone has advise on a newcomer here, it would not go unnoticed. Thanks Heads.....Happy Holidays.

There are not any portable MD recorders that have optical out. They do have in (for recording onto MD from CD or DAT, but not out). Not many MD decks actually have an optical output either. I bought an MD deck specifically for this, and it was quite a find. So you might be connecting the DAT input to the MD input, which is why you're not getting anything out of it...
