#davis

I got a poster from Columbia Records, and there's Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Ellington, Count Basie - everybody in that poster has died, I'm the only one left. And great players like Paul Desmond and Gerry Mulligan, it's hard to believe they're gone because we were all so close. But I believe in the future and the tradition will go on. ↗

I know what I've done for music, but don't call me a legend. Just call me Miles Davis. ↗

Miles Davis had me play and he hired me the following week and after that, everything broke wide open. ↗
