Coolest motherfucker to ever walk the Earth. Am sure you know the old joke: Sonny Rollins dies and gets up to heaven in the jazz wing. He sits at the bar and greets Parker, Trane, Armstrong, all the greats. Over on the corner is a small dude, with shades on and his back turned. "Who's that?" asks Sonny. Trane saya, "Oh, that's just God again pretending like he's Miles." [0] Miles. Coolest motherfucker to ever walk the Earth.
