Trumpeter Miles Davis was so influential on the course of jazz that his recordings changed the music's direction several times. In this podcast, Alyn Shipton starts out to suggest the essential Miles Davis albums, focussing on the period from 1949-61, and he's joined by trumpeter Guy Barker and author Brian Morton to select the finest of Miles's collaborations with Gil Evans and by his 1950s small groups.
