Miles on Miles: Interviews and Encounters with Miles Davis (Musicians in Their Own Words) ReviewHardcover,326 pages. This book covers interviews with Davis from 1957(a publicity piece done by Columbia Records) thru 1998(a short piece on "Dingo"). In between there are pieces done for everything from The Jazz Review to Newsweek to Rolling Stone to a radio interview. There are only two pieces from the fifties and four from the sixties. As Davis became "popular" the interviews increased throughout the seventies and eighties.
The interviews cover some of the same ground that a lot of Davis' fans are familiar with. But in some of the interviews there are revelations not generally known about Davis. One interview I wished could have been reprinted was the 60 Minutes piece from 1989,but CBS wouldn't allow it. Other famous pieces done by DownBeat could not be published either. However,interviews from DownBeat can be found in another book titled "The Miles Davis Reader Interviews and Features From DownBeat Magazine". Together,these two volumes contain a lot of good reading(and pondering)for anyone interested in what made Miles Davis "tick".
Another thing that would have been nice is the inclusion of photographs. There are reproductions(small)of magazine covers in which a few of the pieces were published. Even so,this book is a good look into Miles Davis' world as he wanted us to see it,and it's nice to have them all together.Miles on Miles: Interviews and Encounters with Miles Davis (Musicians in Their Own Words) Overview
