In Concert: Live at Philharmonic Hall is a double album recorded by American jazz musician Miles Davis. It was recorded live at Philharmonic Hall, New York, New York on September 29, 1972, and originally released without track or personnel listings. The two discs have since been given the individual titles Foot Fooler and Slickaphonics.
According to Allmusic editor Steve Huey, "melody isn't the point of this music; it's about power, rhythm, and the sum energy of the collective, and of Davis' electric jazz-rock albums, In Concert does one of the most mind-bending jobs of living up to those ideals".[7] JazzTimes writer Tom Terrell commented that the album "predicts hip hop ('Rated X''s bassline = 'White Lines'), Ornette's Prime Time ('Black Satin') and Talking Heads ('Ife')".[8]
