Miles Davis: "In the car, he told me that I hadn't played "Round Midnight" well, that same night ! Perhaps I said, but I hadn't liked either what he'd done behind me, but I hadn't said anything. Then I added that the people had liked it, and that's why they had stood up and applaused ! Then I told him that he was jalous... He told the driver to stop the car so he could get out. Knowing how stubborn he could be, I told the driver: "Don't pay attention, he is mad, let's go !"... We let Monk at the ferry and headed for New York. When I saw Monk again, it was as if nothing had happened... He was sometimes very strange. We never talked about that again. (Miles - autobiography). |
