Miles Davis

Miles Davis (1926–1991) was an iconic American jazz trumpeter, bandleader, and composer who revolutionized jazz multiple times over five decades, from bebop and cool jazz to modal and fusion. A Juilliard dropout, he famously led ensembles featuring legends like John Coltrane and Wayne Shorter. His 1959 masterpiece Kind of Blue remains the best-selling jazz album ever.
