Song of the Day: In A Silent Way/It's About That Time - Miles Davis (from the 1969 album In a Silent Way)
Quote of the Day: “Don't play what's there, play what's not there.” --Miles Davis
Thought of the Day: I love the above music and quote from Miles Davis. I think Miles' approach to music is similar to Chinese brush painting. The approach is minimalist, with the emphasis being on each stroke or note subtly changing the blank space to create a feeling when perceived by eyes or ears, respectively. The silence is like a golden low-lying moon, and the tones created by Miles and his band are like dots of stars and planets on a cold winter night horizon.
