Its artwork features Corky McCoy's cartoon designs of urban African-American characters. The album's packaging did not credit any musicians, an attempt to make the instruments less discernible to critics. Various takes from the sessions were then spliced together using the tape editing techniques of producer Teo Macero. Recording sessions for the album featured a changing lineup of musicians including bassist Michael Henderson, guitarist John McLaughlin, and keyboardist Herbie Hancock, with Davis playing the electric organ more prominently than his trumpet. The album continued Davis's exploration of jazz fusion, bringing together funk rhythms with the influence of experimental composer Karlheinz Stockhausen and free jazz saxophonist Ornette Coleman. It was recorded in June and July 1972 and released on October 11 of the same year by Columbia Records. On the Corner is a studio album by American jazz trumpeter, bandleader, and composer Miles Davis.
