Brubeck outlined the harmonies.

very good comment. i think it is important to de-mystify the people and try to see what really happened.

Aw, com'n now...he (Gil) had lots of help from Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, here. It's not like he had to figure out those harmonies "from scratch"! Same with Gershwin on Rhapsody in Blue. To me, Miles is like Stanley Clarke when they solo. They always pick the "coolest" last three notes to end a phrase with :-)

núnca me canso de verle y oirle a MilesDavis aquí, me encanta...

do you know what kind of flugel miles is playing on this? it must've influenced his sound on trumpet. as a kid I used to try to get that tone on trumpet without knowing it was a flugelhorn. the mind and ear are funny ..

As always when you listen to miles you have some of the greatest moments in modern music and some fluffs and bad licks. That is miles. And GIL EVANS - nothing to say. Nobody to reach him today, a kind of his own in jazz.

I like The Duke even more than My Ship. I think it's the best of Miles Ahead

Wahey! The Duke!
