Miles to go...

Miles Davis makes it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Posthumous controversies persist in Mile's life. I'm all for it. Granted, his genre was Jazz, but certainly with Bitches Brew he ventured into the world of jazz-rock fusion. One in which is guitarist for that album -John McLaughlin- was (is) quite familiar with.

The NYT agrees with me. They say:

Critics of the choice argue that Mr. Davis was a jazzman — not a rocker — and accuse the hall of misappropriating a major jazz deity and of muddying up the musicological picture. But muddying up traditional categories is what this genre-bending musician was all about, especially in the latter part of his long career.

Right on...
