EP71: Miles Davis

This episode, we pay tribute to a man who changed the face of jazz music, one of the most influential musicians of all-time. Trumpeter Miles Davis was born into a middle-class family, picked up the instrument at the young age of 13, was recruited by Gil Evans to session for shows, and didn't look back - pushing his innovative brand of jazz music to the masses. We sift through his decades long discography, bringing you some stories behind the songs.
