Have you ever listened to Blue In Green by Miles Davis, from that so-called best-selling jazz album of all time, Kind Of Blue?
Well, the only person on the track who seems to have his shit together is Bill Evans. Miles Davis, (ground shudders) MILES DAVIS sounds like shit. His solo is a meandering, nonsensical piece rife with so many off and trite passages that it's mind-boggling to think this guy was ever hailed as a genius. You can almost hear the smack talking.
John Coltrane's solo is almost as bad. He should have been shot for the fuckups in the middle that screamed "I don't know where I'm going with this, but I'm John Coltrane!"
Just gearing up here, Ruth.
