I saw Miles 4/26/85 in New Orleans (part of the Jazz and Heritage
Festival). He was billed with Wynton Marsallis (sp). Miles had top
billing and chose to go on first. He was great! I have to agree with
everything D. Tucker said. I haven't seen him since 1983. He still
played with his back to the audience a bit but he also played directly
to the audience, "posed" for pictures and played more soulful ballads
than i've ever heard him do. He blew Wynton away (which i think was his
intention). After Miles, hearing Wynton was dull. I left halfway
through his set. Apparently many other people did the same.
