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

The electric period was certainly not Jazz, but it was amazing music. I have been listening to Miles for a long time now and his electric stuff is the most fascinating and captivating music I have ever heard. I cannot get enough of it, from the late 60s to the final concerts in Japan in 1975 this is a superb period that a lot of people simply didn't understand. There is nothing to understand, only to listen to, in awe of a musical genius that got the most out of his stellar musicians.

Miles Davis was the musical experience that truly opened my ears to the world of the jazz horn. Prior to this I had had a puculiar bias against brass, finding it abrasive and a little "unmusical" but since I started listening to the albums of Miles Davis (not to mention his incredible string of genius sidemen), I love more and more the warm, human sound of brass instruments and the craft which goes into the shaping of every individual note played. I've even surprised myself with a preference of Trumpet over Saxophone, which used to be the only brass instrument I could stand to listen to.

Miles has to be considered as one of the most forward-thinking and cutting-edge musicians of the 20th century. Purists may label Coltrane (post-Miles' band) as the true innovator, but it was Miles who revolutionized jazz in the 1940's with 'Birth of the Cool' and proceeded to set trends in popular music for the next 40-odd years. The band he recorded with throughout the 60's (Ron Carter on bass, Tony Williams drums, Wayne Shorter on sax, Herbie Hancock on keys) has to be one of the tightest units ever to play together. Studio albums like 'Miles in the Sky', 'In a Silent Way' and 'Water Babies' are incredible.. but the live albums from his band during this era are really where it's at.
