#MilesDavis would have turned 89 today. "Miles Davis – the celebrated trumpeter and musical innovator who died September 28th at the age of 65 – reluctantly agreed to attend an awards dinner at the Reagan White House back in 198... In his frank, fearless autobiography, 'Miles,' he wrote that Cicely Tyson, one of the many women in his life, had invited him and that he went out of respect for one of the award recipients, Ray Charles... According to Davis's account, he was sitting at a table with a woman he described as 'a politician's wife' when she asked him an apparently well-meant question about America's neglect of jazz. 'Jazz is ignored here because the white man likes to win everything,' Davis responded with his usual asperity. Rattled, the woman asked him, 'What have you done that's so important in your life?' Again, Davis had a ready answer. 'Well,' he said, 'I've changed music five or six times.' Miles's off-the-cuff self-assessment seems right on the mark now that this indomitable spirit has left us. But 'changing music' isn't the only thing Davis will be remembered for. He was one of the most personal, gifted and influential trumpet players to grace the second half of our now-waning century."
