Happy Birthday Miles Davis

Jazz musician Miles Davis by Tom Palumbo.

“I’m always thinking about creating. My future starts when I wake up in the morning and see the light.”

“Don’t play what’s there, play what’s not there”

“Do not fear mistakes – there are none.”

“Knowledge is freedom, and ignorance is slavery”

“If they act too hip, you know they can’t play shit.”

“My ego only needs a good rhythm section”

“Jazz is the big brother of revolution. Revolution follows it around.”

“Good music is good, no matter what kind of music it is”

“If you hit a wrong note, it’s the next note that you play that determines if its’s good or bad.”
