Live at the Plugged Nickel

Live at the Plugged Nickel is a live double album by Miles Davis, originally released separately as At Plugged Nickel, Chicago, Vol. 1 and At Plugged Nickel, Chicago, Vol. 2 on CBS/Sony in Japan in 1976, recorded in 1965 on December 22 and 23 respectively and released worldwide through Columbia in 1982 as part of the Contemporary Masters Series.[1] The volumes also appear At Plugged Nickel, Chicago (Album No. 25 / Discs 30 & 31) in the box set Miles Davis: The Complete Columbia Album Collection.[2][3]

Columbia recorded the seven sets the quintet performed over the two nights, but although some tracks were made available on compilations, the full recordings were not released until the appearance of the Complete Live at the Plugged Nickel 1965 in 1995.
