Guest Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 OK, I read Miles's biography and so I know that he played piano on Sonny Rollins "First Recordings". Was this the only time or did he play the black & whites on any other album? Greetz, Sonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7/4 Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 by the '70s he was playing organ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 On Milestones he played piano on one tune (I think it was Sid's Ahead, correct me if I'm wrong, folks), not sure why Red wasn't there, maybe he was late to the session. You notice no one is comping when Miles is playing trumpet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the story was that Red was pissed off and left the studio -- perhaps because Miles was giving him so little solo space on the album?

Rooster_Ties Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Did Miles ever take a solo on piano (on record), or just comp?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkertown Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Red was late to the session. That's why Miles played on Sid's Ahead. Surely contributed to him before fired shortly thereafter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
