Miles Davis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Hancock and Joe Zawinul were brought in to assist Corea on electric keyboards, and the young guitarist John McLaughlin made the first of his many appearances with Miles at this time. |
 | | A devotee of boxing, Davis drew parallels between Johnson, whose career had been defined by the fruitless search for a Great White Hope to dethrone him, and Davis's own career, in which he felt the establishment had prevented him from receiving the acclaim and rewards that were due him. |
 | | Due to ongoing health problems, Davis' performances could still be fairly erratic, but concertgoers found a program with conventional song-based structure (as opposed to the nonstop thematic-based approach of concerts from the end of 1967 to 1975) and on good nights a trumpeter with a vastly expanded range, the result of hours of nonstop practice. |
