The Miles Davis Movie: Filming the Playboy Interview
It's a stretch. I grant you that. But we're still so far out on any significant movement for the Miles Davis Movie, a little conjecture is what keeps me going. Alex Haley's 'candid conversation with the jazz world's premier iconoclast' in the September 1962 issue was the first Playboy Interview (Volume 9, Number 9) and the ...
The Miles Davis Movie: Will It Be the Best Movie Ever About Jazz? Or: Wow, There Are Not a Lot of Movies About Jazz

I Think We Could All Use "A Bit More Miles Davis"
Interesting business story on BusinessJournalism.org about Miles Davis and the effectiveness of his longtime association with the notion of 'cool.' Alan Deutschman's article finds him at the Eleven Madison Park restaurant in New York. During a tour of the kitchen, he notices a large photograph of Miles Davis. It turned out that four years earlier, ...
The Miles Davis Documentary Will Be Here - Soon
For a time Christopher Wilkinson and Stephen J. Rivele were the screenwriters on the Untitled Miles Davis Biopic. Now it's Steve Baigelman given the tall order of writing the script about the jazz legend.

The 16mm color film was shot by filmmaker Jonas Mekas (the date was specifically October 9, 1972). Great. Party footage. Looks like they had fun. Good for them. ...
Five Guys Hoping to Not Screw up Movie About the Life of Miles Davis Pose for a Nice Photo Together
That other Miles Davis website has posted something of interest. It's nothing to stop-the-presses, but it's something. They've posted a group photo of Erin Davis, Steve Baigelman (screenwriter for Miles Davis Biopic), Don Cheadle, Darryl Porter, Vince Wilburn Jr. and the very expensive Genius of Miles Davis Limited-Edition Trumpet Case Box Set, which is not even ...
Jimmy Cobb and the Kind of Blue Sessions
It's eerily appropriate, in a way—Jimmy Cobb is the only musician missing from the photos of the famous “Kind of Blue" recording sessions that decorate his bedroom. He's also the last one still living, a fact he's reminded of every day he awakens and sees his old friends staring back at him—jazz legends John Coltrane and ...
Moving Pictures: The Blue Note Album Covers
This video tribute to the legacy of Blue Note and designer Reid Miles is so awesome I refuse to even waste anyone's time with my writing about it. The piece was conceived to promote a series of summer jazz concerts at the Bella Vista Social Pub in Siena, Tuscany. Okay, so there isn't a Miles Davis ...
Herbie Hancock: "I Don't Feel That I'm Missing Miles Because I Don't Feel He's Gone."
Here's a quick look at an interview Herbie Hancock recently had with The Telegraph. Q Do you think that jazz has outlived itself? A I'm seeing a lot of new, young jazz players emerging from high schools, way more than I expected. They're talented, they're good and they want to play the music. To me ...
