Yeah, that´s it - "Bird lives" - and even so Miles - he had the sixth, or
seventh, sense for other genious musicians, first of all Coltrane; i think
Miles give them all freedom, to play their really soul, to touch the hearts
of all of us, who could hear.
Susan Sontag, maybe - i´m thinking more to Eilton Erickson, the method of
"modelling" - i think Miles had had the possibility to give his "sidemen"
the power to realize their own "dream", their own "sound", a view into their
"soul".
