Miles Davis is one of the central creative artists in the history of recorded American music. As a trumpet player, composer, bandleader and all around badass, Miles created and perfected several different major subgenres of jazz. Shut up and listen.
"I'll play it first and tell you what it is later."
"All you've got to do in this country today is just be on television and you're more known and respected than anyone who paints a great painting or creates great music or writes a great book or is a great dancer. . . . A bad, untalented person who is on television or in the movies can be more recognized and respected than a genius who doesn't appear on the screen."
"I don’t care if a dude is purple with green breath as long as he can swing."
