B. Goren. Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 Miles was born on May 25, 1926. Some of his recordings will find their way to my CD player today. Quote
B. Goren. Posted May 25, 2013 Author Report Posted May 25, 2013 As far as I know it's tomorrow, May 26 You're right, it is my mistake. So I'll listen to him today & tomorrow.... Thanks Cyri. Quote
Gheorghe Posted May 26, 2013 Report Posted May 26, 2013 Anyway I listen frequently to him since I listen to jazz. Quote
Milestones Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Miles is the main, the greatest figure in jazz.If you're not into Miles and Duke and Monk and Mingus, then your jazz card must be revoked! Quote

Who's the White Bitch in the photo I think she is amazing! Isn't she? She's very beautiful for sure. Is this Juliette Greco by any chance? She said Miles didn't marry her because he didn't want her to have to face the trauma of being a White woman married to a Black man in the USA during the 50's. Then again that could just have been one of Miles, 'Fifty Ways To Leave Your Lover' Quote
Cyril Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Juliette Greco looks much better...BTW she reminds me of someone Quote

Who's the White Bitch in the photo That's Jeanne Moreau (photo taken during the recording session for Louis Malle's 'Ascenseur pour l'Echafaud')... Quote

brownie Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Miles shows Jeanne how to play it right... Quote
crisp Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Miles is the main, the greatest figure in jazz. If you're not into Miles and Duke and Monk and Mingus, then your jazz card must be revoked! Hmm. I've always been a bit lukewarm on Mingus (I sense too much control-freakery in his music) and I find I'm going off Monk somewhat (although I don't know why). Still love Duke and Miles though. Quote
B. Goren. Posted May 27, 2013 Author Report Posted May 27, 2013 Juliette Greco looks much better...BTW she reminds me of someone I prefer the beauty of Jeanne Moreau but no doubt that Juliette Greco was also a beautiful woman (and a great artisit). Quote
Cyril Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 (edited) Juliette Greco is still beautiful. She's now 85 or 86 years old. Edited May 27, 2013 by Cyril Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 I've known so many people who named a cat or dog Miles, I thought this was about someone's pet. Quote
