The Late Set

Miles Davis at 100

Episode Description from the Publisher

We’ve rarely seen a centennial celebration like the one that coalesced around Miles Davis: cover stories, deluxe reissues, luxury brand partnerships and tributes of every imaginable form. Then again, we’ve rarely seen an artist like Miles — who once credibly claimed to have “changed music four or five times.” His body of work remains a source of endless fascination. In this episode, Josh Jackson and Nate Chinen sit down to compare notes and highlights, including some of the less celebrated turns and pivots in a famously forward-thinking career.
