Miles Davis was a trumpet player and bandleader from the United States, widely considered one of the most influential and innovative musicians in the history of jazz. By 1974, Davis had already pioneered several major jazz styles, including cool jazz, hard bop, modal jazz, and the jazz fusion of his late 1960s work.
