@SVG__Collection @SVG__Collection I Believe Him. Lol 😂
@SVG__Collection "Play like you don't know how to play." Miles Davis to guitarist John McLaughlin, just before recording 'In A Silent Way'
@SVG__Collection "You are what you think you are..." Eddie Murphy
@SVG__Collection When John McLaughlin worked with him on Bitches Brew, Miles told him to play his guitar as if he didn't know how to play guitar. r k
@SVG__Collection Denouncing obscenely wealthy televangelists on Rattle and Hum, Bono shouts, "Well the God I believe in isn't short of cash, mister!" My kids and I used to say that all the time😊
@SVG__Collection Total bad ass. I was lucky enough to have seen Miles. I don't remember much... except the presence. He had it
@SVG__Collection @DElliotWoods This is freaking awesome 😎
@SVG__Collection Attitude turns sound into a story. Talent’s just the opening line
@SVG__Collection I’ve always understood this quote but I do maintain that the genius behind it was giving the rest of us enough rope to hang ourselves.
@SVG__Collection Fact. Sadly, attitudes are softer these days.
@SVG__Collection "Everything before the word 'but' is horseshit" — Ned Stark
@SVG__Collection Totally respect this man, he was definitely on to something, but my brain is still trying to figure it out. Hopefully i'll get there someday.
@SVG__Collection Elvin Jones When asked how the Coltrane quartet could play with such intensity: “You got to be willing to die for the mutherf*cker.”
@SVG__Collection I can't remember it exactly but, Jaco was talking about reading music. He'd ask "can you read?" Dude would say a little.. Jaco "what do you mean a little? You can or yoy can't"
@SVG__Collection small lore: I was once inspired by Miles Davis's clean-shaven look so I went to my barber and completely shaved my face like him, I have never looked so ugly in my life like that day.
@SVG__Collection Mais la coke bousille le talent. C'est en tout cas mon souvenir. Très triste. #montreuxjazzfestival
