Frances the Mute review is full of errors
I’m writing this review in the hopes that the creators get wind of the numerous mistakes and assumptions they’ve made in this episode. So far I’m about 10 minutes in and the amount of incorrect things shared is quite glaring: *The songs did not originate from jam sessions. Omar was quite controlling over each part of each song and composed everything we hear on every album; *The bits of FTM heard during “jams” on Scab Dates were actually the band intentionally going into a new segment of music, written by Omar, and then moving from that back into the song being performed. Basically a medley; *The approach used by Miles Davis and Omar was not that the musicians were ignorant to the other parts as they recorded, it’s that they were tracked without the accompaniment of other instruments so they would perform as though their part was the main focus. It was an attempt to get the best performance from each musician because they played as if they had to carry the whole song themselves. Notice how the kick drum and bass line change at the same time and lock up throughout the various movements of the last song; I stopped listening shortly after because I’m terrified that they’re going to continue to mangle the legacy of this album/band.
