Description | Richard Cook's It's About That Time: Miles Davis On and Off Record is not a conventional biography. Instead, it evaluates, in the order in which they were made, all of the trumpeter's recordings (official and unauthorized), and relates them to events in Miles's turbulent life, as well as the wider currents in music. For Cook, fourteen albums in particular are key to understanding Davis's evolution. Each of these is considered in detail, in particular for their contribution to Davis's development as instrumentalist, group leader and composer. Cooks also reassesses the contributions of his fellow musicians, which have all too often been ignored or underplayed. It's About That Time is a comprehensive and rigorous account of the music and times of Miles Davis, which burns off the mythic fog that surrounds this complex and contrary personality. It is an essential companion for anyone wanting to retrace the trumpeter's musical odyssey over four exhilarating decades. | Release Date | 2005 | Author | Richard Cook | Format | Dimensions 15.7x22.0x2.0 cm 373 pages book | Publisher | Atlantic Books | Subject(s) | Biography & Autobiography / Music Biography & Autobiography / Entertainment & Performing Arts Music / Musical Instruments / Woodwinds |
