My Davis gateway - John McLaughlin guitar on Jack Johnson then tracing drum icon Tony Williams career back from his Lifetime albums into the 2nd Quintet with Carter on bass. Then you jump into those wild live groove albums Live Evil, Agharta and Dark Magus. Davis and Macero and all that talent just let each other take there turn and showcased each musician. A lot of fun OMG moments with the interplay of sound. Chill and Thrill.

There is no right way to get into Miles, just pick a couple of random albums and go. You'll find something you'll like eventually.

As I sit here listening to Shhh/Peaceful, I think to myself: few artists have brought me so much joy.
Viva la Miles.
Viva la Miles.

I saw him in Lugano at Estival Jazz, in 1987, he was turning his back to the audience most of the time.... ( I was on H ); but i am happy i was there : -) RIP miles !

Miles' true genius might have been his ability to spot and nurture talent. Not saying he couldn't play a bit himself, but holy lord above just look at the players that he put together. As great a talent-scout and band-assembler as the world has ever seen. Made sure they kept him on his toes as well. Imagine having the bottle that late into the game (by which point he'd, to invoke the man himself, only changed the face of music two or three times) to pull together the Second Quintet - some straight-up-not-even-exaggerating prodigies, all hungry, all pushing, all trying new stuff - and forcing yourself to keep pace with them. Biggest of brass balls required.
