	Marcus Miller
		Miller's airy studio is filled with daylight, not to mention his many (bass) guitars, tapes, CDs, and of course, music recording gear (see pages 40 and 42 for a full inventory and Miller's comments on the gear).
		Miller's hands-on approach to producing has at times led to the accusation that the albums he produces are really Marcus Miller solo albums featuring the artist.
		However, Miller is the first to admit that choices in the music industry are more and more made in favour of commercial success, and that this is bad for music, to the degree that the music industry as a whole is now in decline.

		Miller got the idea of releasing another live record after he was asked after shows to sign CDs he didn't recognize -- because they turned out to be bootlegs.
		Miller began his professional career in the late 1970s, at 19, and found himself in demand almost from the start.
		Miller, who also has served as the regular bassist for David Sanborn and Luther Vandross and done some work on the West Coast as well, permanently relocated to the Los Angeles area "about seven or eight years ago" while working on a Vandross album.

	Marcus Miller
		Marcus Miller (born June 14, 1959 in New York) is a jazz musician, composer and producer, perhaps best known as a bass guitarist with Miles Davis and David Sanborn.
		Audible in Miller's playing, along with the rich and undeniable originality, are the influences of some of the previous generation of electric bass players, such as Keni Burke and especially Jaco Pastorius (who himself was only born in 1951).
		Along with appearing on many albums as a sideman, Miller currently leads his own band, which strives to faithfulness to the concepts of improvisation and innovation in jazz-based music that is perhaps more accessible to different audiences.

	Jazz Artist Interview Marcus Miller @ jazzreview.com

		Marcus Miller: I come from a very solid family and the way my parents lived and loved is what I came to expect for myself.

		Marcus Miller is foremost known as a Grammy-winning bass player, but as he proves on Silver Rain, Miller is equally formidable as an arranger.

		On his new disc, "M2," Miller mostly avoids the show-off speed runs that doom most solo albums by bassists.
		These are the genres Miller is working in, despite the presence of such jazz heavyweights as James Carter, Herbie Hancock, Branford Marsalis, Kenny Garrett and Wayne Shorter.
		Miller brings some substance to the pop-instrumental format, but he never quite escapes its limitations.

		Miller's road band consists of Marcus Miller (natch) on bass guitar/alto sax/bass clarinet, Dean Brown on guitar, Poogie Bell on drums, Bruce Flowers on keyboards, Roger Byam on sax/flute and Michael "Patches" Stewart on trumpet/fluglehorn.
		Miller is not as kinetic a player as other bass players I respect, but he's an amazing player in his own right.
		He usually starts the tune, he gives very clear direction to his bandmates (like mimeing how he wanted Poogie to play his drumline at a few points during the show) and calls solos as the song progresses (pointing to which member of the band is to solo and when their solo is to end).

	PRA presents Marcus Miller's Biography

		Marcus was born in Brooklyn on June 14, 1959 and was raised in Jamaica, NY on Long Island.

	Marcus Miller, MP3 Music Download at eMusic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Primarily a bassist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, Marcus Miller has worked on hundreds of sessions -- crossing jazz, R&B, and rock -- and has released several solo recordings since his late '70s beginnings with Bobbi Humphrey and Lonnie Liston Smith.
		Despite the many hats he has worn -- improviser, interpreter, arranger, songwriter, film-music composer, bassist, clarinetist, saxophonist -- none of them have been put on for the sake of the whim.
		His solo recordings were almost as diverse as his outside work; hybrids of smooth R&B, funk, and jazz peppered the majority of the albums, while 1993's The Sun Don't Lie and the following year's Tales (both issued through PRA) also incorporated sampling technology.

		The Marcus Miller run — and we do mean run — began in earnest 25 years ago, when he got back from a tour with drummer Lenny White.
		After playing bass in Davis' band, Miller got a chance to produce the legend, which was, not surprisingly, a bit intimidating for a young man. “Oh yeah, especially at the beginning,” he admits.
		Miller says that building the studio was a way for him to control his sessions better, “particularly because we started a label that my record was the first release on,” he explains.

		Be aware, there’s a legion of Marcus fans out here and we have followed this gifted musician's career for many years, recognizing that Marcus is far more than just a behind-the-scenes bass player.
		Both being masters of their respective instruments, Marcus, Miles and the rest of the band, performed knock-out gems like "Tutu", and "Full Nelson" and "Amandla", (all produced by Marcus) around the world, reviving Miles' career and introducing him to a new and younger audience.
		This partnership lasted until Miles' untimely death in 1991, and his association with the legend earned Marcus respect from his peers and fans alike, solidifying his place as one of the true giants in the industry.
