by David Unger and Samuel Thiebaut
November 10, 2026

This interview was conducted as part of the FranceTV.com special Miles Davis, 100 ans d'avance. More than a conventional studio album, Jack Johnson (Columbia, 1971) documents a creative process.

During the early 1950s, trumpeter Miles Davis (1926-91) recorded for both Prestige and Blue Note, the most distinctive independent labels in jazz at the time.
