Miles Davis Changed the World

Miles Davis stands as a towering figure in jazz, not only for his innovative musical style, which evolved with every passing decade of the 20th century, but also for his profound influence on other well known jazz musicians. Davis had a knack for assembling talented individuals and pushing them to their creative limits, resulting in collaborations that created a very fine legacy in the world of jazz.

Influential artists who collaborated with Davis include pianists Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans, Wynton Kelly, Red Garland, Gil Evans, Chick Corea, Joe Zawinul and Larry Young; saxophonists John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Cannonball Adderley, Sonny Rollins, Gary Bartz, and Steve Grossman; guitarists John McLaughlin, Reggie Lucas, John Scofield; bassists Ron Carter, Paul Chambers, Dave Holland and Marcus Miller; and percussionists Jimmy Cobb, Billy Cobham, Jack DeJohnette, Al Foster, Lenny White and Tony Williams.
