@916simone you must check out "kind of blue" and "birth of the cool" by miles if you havnt heard them! also "sketches of spain" and "in a silent way". so many works of genius to choose from.amazing legacy.

[psychopathtoine]

@jburde thanks! I play the guitar

[jburde]

@psychopathtoine You can just stick to F major (F G A Bb C D E F) for the verse and A minor (A B C D E F G A) for the bridge. There's only 3 chords, Gm for 6 bars & then Fmaj for 2 bars in the verse and Am for the entire bridge. What instrument do you play?

[psychopathtoine]

can someone explain me the scales involved? so i can play along? new to this

[RoflFreak101]

almost closed this down by accident and it closed every tab apart from this??? THANK YOU

[stratoram01]

@thejolf Bill Evans is easy to get in to. Or try Stan Getz.

[gat1240]

People asking whether it is Mile Stones or Miles Tones , if you knew anything at all about Miles you would have to say it's a play on words.In other words it's both.

[MultiTalanted]

[4thebacon]

ONE OF MY ROOMATES TOLD ME THIS SONG SUCKS SO I SEARCHED FOR IT ON YOUTUBE AND ITS KINDA CATCHY

I've been looking to learn jazz on the drums to make myself a more well rounded drummer.

Nothing inspires me like actually listening to the music, trouble is I can't find any jazz I enjoy listening to. But this isn't actually that bad.

What put me off looking up Miles Davis before was because I studied 'All Blues' at school and it was really boring haha
