ミュージシャンのお言葉いただきます!やすおのそれ、座布団一枚! ミュージシャンのお言葉いただきます!やすおのそれ、座布団一枚!

Musicians who have left great music have also left great words. A nice interpretation of the subject. Words to live by, even if you have to use them forcefully in your daily life.

What is our topic today?

Name:
Miles Davis
Quotation:
Even in the same Fields, different fields
You have to change your feelings.

Davis said these words in an interview with the well-established jazz critic Les Tompkins.
Tompkins is said to have unraveled the grumpy Miles in this interview and brought out his true intentions.
In the conversation before and after, the names of the musicians are specifically mentioned.
For example, Dave Holland and Stan Getz.
When Les Tompkins described it as establishing Fields about their playing style, Miles argued:

Continue to compare it to boxing
"You need to change your center of gravity. You can't do anything with your feet.
If you punch from your upper body many times, you will want to lower it. Then you have to hit it from your waist.
Players also have to do that. "
It's a sensuous expression, but it seems that you should aim for any approach while changing the center of gravity and not just sit there cross-legged in one place.

Powerful words saying that there is no progress if you cross your legs in one place; you have to act flexibly.
While emphasizing the feeling, the center of gravity is free! Isn't it said that can be applied not only to the jazz scene, but also to boxing and even everyday life?
Is this the secret to evolution? Miles himself has continued to make good progress since 1969 when he was interviewed by Tompkins.
He produced a number of masterpieces called "IN A SILENT WAY" and "BITCHES BREW", and will make a leap toward the 70's.
It may have been his own saying that was the driving force behind these.

I like this! One cushion!
