mark murphy on bob for keroac (hard to find)

miles recorded very nicely as well, but i don't remember the name of the album, but i'm sure it's easy to find.

If I'm not back in 24 hours, call the president.

Scot is available for skype jazz piano lessons (and google hangouts, phone call, etc...)

the definitive recording is on birth of the cool (miles davis/gil evans/gerry mulligan).

incidentally the composer is usually identified as "cleo henry" - in fact it was gil evans, who used miles's mother's name.

interesting jazz fact #407

hi, check out the cd "miles in montreaux", 1990 or 1991. it is an invitation to miles davis in order to play some sketches of the albums "miles ahead" and "birth of the cool", with the gil evans orchestra. since miles was ill at that time (in fact, it would be his last public performance), he took wallace roney to play the trumpet when he couldn't breath enough to play.
