by Ludovico Granvassu
As part of our Celebration of Dave Holland, we invited Bill Frisell to share a few thoughts about a musician who has been an important part of his musical world for decades. Bill had rather a lot to say, and it seemed a shame to stop at a few thoughts. So, rather than squeezing ...
Without a Net, and with Love, Uncle Miles
by Emily Steinhilber
When I called Vince Wilburn Jr. to talk about Miles Davis at 100 (read our own tribute), he answered from the Chicago house where he grew up--the same house where Davis used to telephone his mother and ask her to lower the receiver toward the basement so he could listen to his teenage nephew rehearse.
