Because the great response to the Mtume piece I posted over the weekend I’m posting this short clip from a longer interview with Mtume about how Miles Davis re-directed the sound of American music on several occassions from ‘Birth of the Cool,’ ‘Kind of Blue,’ "‘Sketches of Spain,’ ‘Bitches Brew,’ ‘On the Corner,’ to ‘Tutu.’ A legacy unmatched. Mtume, who has had a wide ranging musical career himself, played with Miles and had a close relationship with the master trumpeter, band leader and composer.
