Miles Dewey Davis III (May 26, 1926 - September 28, 1991), better known as Miles Davis was an American jazz musician, trumpeter, bandleader, and composer. Widely considered one of the most influential and innovative musicians of the 20th century,[1] Miles Davis was, together with his musical groups, at the forefront of several major developments in jazz music, including bebop, cool jazz, hard bop, modal jazz, Third stream, post-bop and jazz fusion.
In 2006, Davis was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,[2] which recognized him as "one of the key figures in the history of jazz".[2] In 2008, his 1959 album Kind of Blue received its fourth platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), for shipments of at least four million copies in the United States.[3] On December 15, 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a symbolic resolution recognizing and commemorating the album Kind of Blue on its 50th anniversary, "honoring the masterpiece and reaffirming jazz as a national treasure" - WIkipedia
Jazz organist, trumpeter, saxophonist, Joey DeFrancesco, and bassist Christian McBride played with Miles when they were just starting out, and both went on to have stellar careers of their own.
David Anthony "Tony" Roberts (born October 22, 1939) is an American actor. He is best known for his roles in several Woody Allen movies, most notably Annie Hall, usually cast as Allen's best friend. - Wikipedia

If he learned it off the recordings rather than a fake book, he would’ve played it in Eb rather than C. The vast majority of jazz musicians play Green Dolphin St in Eb.

I met Miles about three months before this interview and I was stunned when he said he'd been watching me on TV for years and actually said, "I always wanted you to interview me." I invited him to the show I was doing at the time. So what actually happened here was he came all the way from NYC to Phila at his own expense. I would have preferred no other busts on show but could not overrule management. I spent time with him after the interview and he was very happy about it.

I wish my dad would’ve had his business in order outside of being a studio musician, owning music school, fixed repaired piano organs, played for Hawkins, Darrell Coley, Andrae Crouch and Al Green just to name a few. He loved Jimmy Smith. When he and then Ms Lola passed away, Joey D ended up with the organ. I reached out and he actually said he still had the organ with the plaque dedicating it to Jimmy. Joey D was so kind.

As a musician myself, I can say that I would love for someone to give me honest criticism about my playing. For people who are serious about music you will treat such criticism as a blessing, especially coming from a legend such as Miles. I still feel for the kid because he was young and inexperienced, but Miles was being helpful, and you can't be helpful if you smile and say 'it was great!' all the time. You will never fix anything or strive to be better because you are already being told you are great.

I watched the first 8 minutes and don't know what you are talking about, man. The Boggs man seems cheesy, but he is comfortable to joke with a "serious" musician and clearly appreciates what Miles has done and does. Miles is quiet about the remark on his clothes but as soon as he asks the guy "What did you say about Sketches of Spain" you feel Miles has been listening and decides, yes, this guy has really listened to me play, not just bullshitting.

@Allen Albright Yeah, I don't get it either, I checked the video again and it does seem like he says Eb, but I can't imagine he's telling the kid to play the song nearly a full octave lower; that would just be a rude joke on his part, which I can't imagine him doing tbh.
@c.l.368
@c.l.368 4 года назад
@Allen Albright Maybe he's suggesting a different key but not because he was having trouble hitting the high notes. As a matter of fact, the notes he mainly messed up weren't the high ones, so perhaps it has to do with something else other than how high the notes are that would make the song easier to play for the kid. I know absolutely nothing about what makes it hard to play notes on the trumpet so, yeah, probably something to do with that...

Exactly. All I really need to know about Miles Davis is what his music does to me; how it makes me feel. There are some film actors (for example) who I wouldn't care to meet for a second, but LOVE their acting abilities and respect their talent. I do not want to know anything about their personal lives. I only know that their acting talent is SUPERB and I can appreciate it. On Miles turning his back to the audience, we don't know if it's the only way he can cope in from of a crowd or maybe he knows he PLAYS BETTER that way. One thing is for sure...it's not that he's being disrespectful to the audience b/c just like any true artist, sharing their art and talent is what they live for.

Miles was way more chill with Dick Cavett. The atmosphere was way more relaxed, and I'm pretty sure the two knew each other, and were friends. As for Boggs, I wouldn't say I'm a fan of the show or anything, but in his defense, the producers obviously crammed all kinds of stuff into the space of an hour. Bill was pressed for time, and it's his job to keep things moving, Miles or not.. It's not like a 60 Minutes interview or anything, but rather more like a variety show for an audience who doesn't necessarily even know who Miles is, or is into music. It's for keeping moms entertained while doing the ironing, lol. I agree with a previous poster that he (Miles) knew what he was in for. He needed to hawk the new record though, and he indeed handled this quite well.

Kids turned out as much better-equipped adults when constructive criticism wasn't frowned upon. It's character-building. You either take it and work your ass off to do better, or you cop out and do something else. Life isn't always pleasant and kids need to learn adversity. Miles would have faced plenty. He was asked his opinion and he gave it. He didn't owe participation trophies to anyone.

Wonder how Clifford or Lee or Freddie sounded at 12-13, ...probably fierce...I knew a bunch of musicians at 13-14 that were already pro sounding at jazz , which is not easy.

Jazz musicians play On Green Dolphin Street usually in Eb (as real pitch), even though every sheet music is written in C (as real pitch). Miles said to the boy that he played in D, which mean C with trumpet in Bb pitch. So, young trumpeters must play it in F, that Miles wanted to say.

I will be the first to admit that I would have been too intimidated to interview the man. He was so far ahead of the curve, we haven't caught up this many years after his death. And I'm not talking just about music either! For such an innovator, we can't or shouldn't limit such a one to just one genre. When you heard a new work by Miles, it was already in his past!

Miles is and Miles was Miles. Before anyone judges him, you either had to know him or to have read "Miles: The Autobiography": By Miles Davis with Quincy Troupe. Still listen to him with Charlie Parker onwards. Davis was an intelligent, talented soul. Also read Miles Beyond by Paul Tingen. Davis was classy and grown up jeb31415, he just lived by his own chosen standards, which men today ought to be doing instead of relying on Hollywood and the NFL dictating to them how men "ought" to act. So people say sometimes he'd turn his back to them while he was playing, he had his reasons which I can understand; we can't all be alike; read his autobiography.

Thanks Nigel. In the late summer of '88, my gal and pals in the U.S.A.F. went to see him in the Wash. D.C. area. Miles didn't show up and we all returned home disappointed, but still neither I or my friends said anything negative about Davis. We all loved him and knew he wasn't in very good health.

"How does he sound Miles? " Miles: "he needs to practice you know how he sounds" lol straight savage but honest. depending on the kid's personality it either motivated him or crushed his dreams. sometimes that's how it's gotta be. people probably told Miles the same thing when he was a kid.

+A Lonely Lizard If the kid was a machine learning algorithm trying to error-correct, then sure, the criticism would help a bit. But this is a kid we’re talking about. He clearly idolised Miles, and probably worked really hard to try to impress him. So when Miles offhandedly says “he needs to practice” (which basically means “you sounded awful”), that must have been incredibly discouraging for the kid. In front of a crowd as well! I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that the kid gave up playing after that. Miles could have easily brought up the problem as a minor fault like “you played great! I think a good way to improve from here would be to work on your intonation” etc. But of course, expecting Miles to say something considerate like that would be ridiculous

Very true John! A Simon Cowell would've told a kid playing like that "your old fashioned and no ones going to listen to music like that anymore". Miles just told the young man that he already understood his own sound. And the more he practiced,the better he'd get. That's all. He didn't swear at the kid. And Miles was noted for his gruff crankiness. He just gave the kid permission to improve on his own musical craft. Hope he did.

This guy makes the classic mistake most interviewers make with someone of the caliber of Miles - he first comes off like he's Miles' best friend (see awkward one-sided hug attempt followed by a "get off me, whitey" shove at 1:56), then he proceeds to _tell_ Miles about his own music, which is repeatedly followed by corrections and disenchanted looks by Miles. I can see why Miles is frustrated in this video. The interviewer comes off way too entitled.
