I saw Miles perfform it at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1984. Simply stunning.

I saw Miles do Time After Time as well at the Power Center in Ann Arbor MI. He had a 13 piece band and they were very tight and kicked butt. They also did Michael Jackson's Human Nature, very tasteful. I got very lucky and called at the last minute for tickets and someone had just cancelled so I got 2 7th row center tickets! I was thinking it was a little later than 84.

  A rather bland version appears on Miles' CD, "You're Under Arrest" but I do have several home made bootlegs, including the one I cited. At time Miles repeatedly sdaid of his studio recordings that they should be approached as a sort of "menu" of things wou might hear in concert.

      There are also versions of "Time After Time" on "The Paris Concert" and "Miles in Montreal".

        in Paris and Montreal like he does at the Munich concert
        If you've not seen "Montreux" which is a Quincy Jones collaboration, it's a fine enough documentary and behind the scenes look at preparation for the Jazz festival, but an uncomplimentary footnote to Miles career as far as the actual performance goes.... ( too bad )

        He was ill at the time and had Wallace Roney with him to do some of the soloing. Years before, Miles said, "If I had to play that old music I'd proably have a heart attack or somewthin'". And of course shortly after Montreaux (where Qunicy Jones prevailed upon him to do just that) Miles did die of a heart attack (plus other illnesses).
