Jazz Trumpet 2 (Music of Miles Davis) - Miles Davis

Indisputably one of the giants of jazz, Miles Davis has influenced the whole of jazz since World War Two. At several stages in his career Miles has discarded his previous approach to improvisation and taken up an entirely new direction. Time and again the resulting performances have changed the course of jazz history. To put it simply, Miles has repeatedly proved to be ahead of the game, and the man to watch.
