Miles The Autobiography by Miles Davis with Quincy Troupe Book Review

I have been a Miles Davis fan since I was a teenager.

My brother got me into his music.

Miles Davis (1926-1991) is one of the biggest contributors to Jazz music and just music in general.

His trumpet playing influenced so many and his music is timeless.

He had a great ear for music and for talent.

He worked with a lot of great musicians, some of whom were Charlie “Bird” Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, and soooooo many more.

His body of work is phenomenal.

Such classic albums such as ‘Round About Midnight, Kind Of Blue, Bitches Brew, and a TON of others.

This book, released in 1989, is about his life, told by him in his words.

No filter.  It’s all there.

He was one of a kind and there will never be another like him.

Seek out this book and his great music.

You won’t regret it.

The Ardent Fan
