Когда измученного болезнями и наркотиками Чарли Пракера (http://www.neformat.com.ua/forum/jazz-blues/12093-charlie-parker.html) журналисты вконец достали своими вопросами о том, какими еще открытиями в музыке собирается удивить мир гений современного джаза, он ответил так: "Следите лучше за Майлзом. Он пойдет дальше".
О да, Майлз действительно всегда шёл дальше. Потрясающий, гениальнейший Музыкант(имено с большой буквы). Человек, вклад которого в развитие джаза настолько огромен, что охватить его в одной жалкой статье просто невозможно).
Наряду с Джоном Колтрейном (http://www.neformat.com.ua/forum/jazz-blues/11200-john-coltrane.html), Майлз Дэвис является одним из самых моих любимых музыкантов в джазе. Работы Дэвиса определили развитие этого стиля на несколько десятилетий вперёд, и даже сейчас, в 2007 году(а родился Майлз в 1926) влияние его слышится практически во всём джазе.
Этот человек никогда не останавливался на достигнутом. Чарли Паркер был прав - Майлз просто не мог не идти вперёд. видимо такая уж натура была у этого человека: всмотритесь внимательнее в его фотографии, особенно во взгляд...
Именно Дэвису принадлежат заслуги изобретения таких стилей как кул джаз(cool - прохладный, а не "крутой", как может кому-то показаться), модальный джаз(modal) и фьюжн. Он испробовал всё начиная от бибопа, заканчивая заходами даже на территорию джаз-рока (вспомните http://www.neformat.com.ua/forum/jazz-blues/15133-the-mahavishnu-orchestra.html ).
Дискография настолько обширна, что даже ярые поклонники наверное всё не слышали)) Поэтому я отдельно писать её не буду, а посмотреть можно у вики.
То же самое с биографией - не хочу чьи-то труды красть, поэтому довольно прилично написанную биографию Майлза Дэвиса читайте тут

The most satisfying sort of audacity was the rule with Miles Davis's second great quintet. One of six studio albums cut by the group between 1965 and 1968, Miles Smiles finds them executing three Wayne Shorter compositions and one by the leader, along with Eddie Harris's "Freedom Jazz Dance," former Davis cohort Jimmy Cobb's "Gingerbread Boy," and the usual mix of finesse and barreling momentum. Even when nodding toward the then-burgeoning hard-bop movement on the Harris piece, the group makes its own mark in a hundred different ways, from Herbie Hancock's spare touch to the thoroughly declarative solo Davis lays down. It's hard to pick the most exceptional cut on such a top-flight disc, but certainly Shorter's deceptively simple "Orbits" and "Footprints" deserve mention; on the former, the players take turns stating the melody and then rumbling over it. The latter's echoes of "Caravan" make way for an improv performance that not only hangs tough in itself, but seems to have provided a template for the entire early career of Wynton Marsalis. --Rickey Wright

There are more tributes to Miles Davis's acoustic jazz groups of the 1950s and 1960s than one can easily count. But there are precious few explorations, like Panthalassa, of his outlaw electric jazz period, dating from 1969 to 1974. Himself a studio outlaw of sorts, bassist and producer Bill Laswell goes a good distance rectifying the lack of attention paid to Davis's growling, funky electric period. He remixes and "translates" the dramatic slowness of In a Silent Way and smoothes over the abrasive jump cuts and edits that have made On the Corner a blazing listen for over 25 years. Laswell builds ambient-dub spreads on Davis's electro-fusion architecture, and he makes heavy funk out of the Davis band's mix of low-end bassiness and high-end soprano sax and electric piano. Look out for more paeans to the previously maligned electric period in Miles Davis's career. - Andrew Bartlett
