A Birthday Tribute to Miles Davis

May 26th is the birthday anniversary of Miles Dewey Davis, the legendary trumpeter and bandleader and Jazz Unlimited with Paul Anthony will celebrate with a special show devoted to his music. We will highlight a few albums which are considered Milestone albums in the jazz world including work from his two great quintets, his collaboration with Gil Evans on Birth of the Cool which ushered in the advent of the cool jazz movement. We’ll also listen to his groundbreaking albums which led to Miles immersion into electronic fusion music on In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew and, of course, no survey, would be complete without a cut from in my estimation the greatest album ever recorded…KIND OF BLUE. Join me this week for a birthday tribute to Miles Davis on Jazz Unlimited with Paul Anthony
