LOATHED by critics in his lifetime.

LOVED by everyone else since his passing.

Currently listening to the "unedited master" of "One and One" from "The Complete On The Corner Sessions" and can't decide if I want to fight or fuck.

1.  "I can guarantee this truth: A prophet isn't accepted among his own people."
Thus endeth the lesson.

Amen

2. It's like Dave Liebman said about those critics outraged by this period...
"No one ever has to take a test to be a jazz critic. You have to take a test to be a bus driver, but not a jazz critic"

Or as I say
Fuck them if they can't take a genius

Rest In Peace Miles Dewey Davis
