I think his question was what made Miles give up talking to him.

@allen69245 жыл бұрын
He wasn't emphatic with his playing. He didn't have a swagger to his playing. It was as if he was searching as he played and wasn't sure about his choices. And Mile's ear is always looking for that confidence in a musicians playing. That's from someone who's played with the best players for 40 years (not me, but miles did).

I just watched an interview with Jackie McLean, he said that when he auditioned for Miles in a club he was so nervous he got about 8 bars into his solo then had to run off the stage and throw up. The rhythm section kept playing, so he cleaned himself up, got back on stage and finished his solo. Miles said afterward, "I never saw anyone do that before." And he hired him.

A lot of musicians play a plethora of notes. Bird would play every note in the chord plus the notes of the relative chord in one bar and it was amazing. Same with Diz. That was their genius. Miles is more known for the notes he DIDN'T play. When you can paint a picture in one or two notes you are a genius. Playing the right note, at the right time, with attitude, that was Miles's genius, and it carried his music through to generations of musicians.

I don't know, man... I mean i get what happened there, how miles heard Joey DeFranc' play and zoned in on that -- but i was honestly interested in what Miles might've said about the Akai EWI (Yamaha EVS, et al). Those things -- MIDI-control-sending wind instruments -- first came out in the early 1980's and there have been many models that've come out in the decades since but really the Akai EWI is still a desirable one to get. They're not cheap either, so hearing what a serious genius player like Miles might've opined about them would be super helpful to other wind players. I've worked primarily as a keyboardist in my own bands since the late 90's, but i started off learning by learning alto sax in high school in the '80s. I often thought to buy one of those MIDI horns before -- well something more professional than the Casio DH-100 anyway, lol -- and was seriously keen to hear what Miles might say beyond "yeah, i tried one in Japan" or whatnot. Felt real sorry for that trumpet player, too. Wouldn't be surprised if he just gave up on playing after that.

With his sidemen, there was no in-between with Miles. A very important part of Miles’s genius was his conception of what the material needed. You had what he wanted for what he was into at the time, or you didn’t. Look back at the classic groups for Kind of Blue, Bitches Brew, Miles Ahead, Tutu, etc. Each of Miles’s musical periods and albums/concepts required drastically different musical conception, vocabulary, and presence from everyone in the group. The trumpet player on that last bit was a very fine player, but Miles heard only what Joey Defrancesco had to offer, and he lit up on it. Good (but not unique) as the trumpeter was, Miles likely heard nothing but Joey during the piece...

I loathe reading the "technical" comments. Miles was CLASSICALLY and PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED. HE EVEN ATTENDED JULLIARD! His playing through the 40s and early 50s show his technical abilities, but what got from the mid 50s to the 70s was a musician and artist creating new music. In the 80s, Miles didn't have to perform at that technical level, as he created or played his music with melody, texture, space and feeling, as he'd done so earlier in his career. You went to a Miles show for the creative process and creativity of his bandmates, not a technical dissertation from robotic college student musicians. A ton of his shows are online, and they are bootlegged. Miles always said the truth will come after he was gone. Stop listening to only the album releases, and do some research on various eras of his music.

Miles Davis was mean. No other way to put it. It would be interesting to hear John Swana’s take on this today. He’s a great jazz trumpet player. If you don’t believe me, check out his burning contributions to Chris Potter’s 1993 debut album on Criss Cross, where the very same bassist from this clip (Christian McBride) is also a side man! My favorite Miles is the early years when he was trying to hang with Bird and Trane (and always kind of coming in last place but still getting the job done). It felt like he was striving then. It felt earnest and exciting, rather than like someone trying to be cool, which is what I get from the various interviews in this clip and the music he was making at the time of these interviews. His modal period and the cool jazz period were great too. But by the end he had turned into a caricature of the great artíste, saying meaningless stuff like “there has to be a beat between the beat” and expecting people to accept it as deep wisdom. These are just opinions, of course, and nothing more than one guy’s opinions, but that’s what I see when I watch this (kind of sad) video.

I've read interviews where Miles was talking about carriage a bit more, and he's referring to how the musician walks, stands, holds the instrument, etc. I guess he's talking about a certain "body sense" that would reflect how the musician would feel (or not feel) the music. I don't know, it's pretty obscure. But if carriage is important for a musician, I'm a lost cause.

in several interviews Miles later explained that his position/attitude on stage and while playing had more to do with him hearing the trumpet's sound/feedback the way he wanted, in detriment of turning his back to the audience, moving around or looking odd. of course, in that phase he could afford to do whatever he wanted without worrying if it would affect his career. I agree it's contradictory that his usual stance (trumpet pointing down) was not the carriage he wanted to see in a prospective bandmate, but again, he was the one choosing people, and attitude/confidence was paramount to him

I've always felt a connection to Miles Davis. I'm not really a jazz guy, but Miles Davis isn't even jazz to me it's better I can't really explain it very well. But that sort of modal and minimal style has always been what Im drawn to in music. So while I don't play jazz, I have Miles Davis influence as a part of alot of what I do

Miles Davis was hype. Not a great trumpet player and not a great personality. He s fame was centered around his wierdness.

My two favorite Miles recordings are his entire Prestige catalog and his entire Columbia catalog. You should consider checking those out.

If music was like sport you’d be right. But it isn’t. Miles managed to create beautiful art decade on decade, that didn’t resemble the decade previous. This is so difficult to achieve that there aren’t many artists who have ever managed to do it. He was also a bringer together of personnel and trained up multiple leaders from within his ranks. The net effect of his existence was a physical legacy (his music itself) and a human resource legacy (the subsequent success of his alumni players and their resulting careers and contributions). These legacies point to a stunning success that negates any claims of hype or undeserved recognition.

You ask Miles Davis on broadcast television in a once in a lifetime opportunity what he thinks about an electric trumpet???? Thats like asking Gordon Ramsay on national television in a once in a lifetime opportunity "so what do you think about 3d printed meat?" Of course hes gonna ask "whats the name of your sous chef?

Especially when the sous chef is Mario Batali.

This guy was ignorant and rude and I wouldn't give two seconds to listen to his garbage. He speaks funny too.

The trumpet solo was too bland. Too nice. No personality.
