The Last Miles

The Last Miles Synopsis

"Cole does for Miles's late work what Ian MacDonald's Revolution in the Head does for the Beatles, examining each album in meticulous detail." -Time Out"As with any good musical biography, Cole . . . made me think again about those albums such as Siesta, You're Under Arrest, and The Man with the Horn that are now stashed in my attic."-London Times"In the flurry of books since [Miles Davis's] death, none has dealt in depth with the music of this period.

Music writer George Cole fills this gap. . . . a rich and rewarding read."-Gazette (Montreal)"A fascinating book."-Mojo"A singular look into the last stage of Davis's long, somewhat checkered career gained from various sources, which at the same time gives a picture of the modern music business."-Midwest Book Review"There are large chunks of fresh material here.

. . . Fill[s] in quite a few gaps and dismisses blanket condemnations of [Miles's] pop phase."-Jazzwise"Thank you for telling it like it was!"-Randy Hall, singer and guitarist"Very moving, emotional material."-Gordon Meltzer, Miles's last road manager and executive producer of Doo-Bop.
