I love that album Man and his Horn.Been a couple of years since I heard it.Came out like 79 or something?Maybe his last album?
Got some funk type shit on it.His "Crack" years.
Anyway Crack/smoking Coke was a big thing for the guy,unfortunately.

Crack and hookers from what I recall in the book.
Ya know, somethings are just better paired together.
Wasn't there a section in the book where he talks about locking himself in his apt for months doing nothing but blow and hookers?
Any way you slice it, Miles played his ass off.

A little off the subject, but the latest Rolling Stone has an extensive article on Ornette Coleman and talks a bit about his relationship with the GD. It has a quote from Bob on How much Jerry admired Coleman because he was taking the music in new directions.

Hes bigger than just music in American history-just like Babe Ruth,Elvis,J.F.K all transcend their fields to become legend.
Coke hookers and all.
