Here's how to play: you have to connect a musician to their tie with Miles Davis, who played with a lot of musicians, within 6 degrees of separation. For example: Stanley Clarke < Chick Corea < Miles Davis Stanley Clarke plays with Chick Corea who played with Miles Davis. or Eric Krasno < Adam Deitch < John Scofield < Billy Cobham < Miles Davis Ok ready? I'll start with an easy one. Jaco Pastorius ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/MysticBoogy" rel="nofollow - My Last.fm |

Yes. You could even have connected Jaco with Herbie and skip the others. Now you choose the next musician. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/MysticBoogy" rel="nofollow - My Last.fm |

Maybe McKnight played with Hancock on a later album, but I've always known him as the guy who replaced Hancock in the Headhunters. I was thinking more like: McKnight > Mike Clarke > Hancock > Miles

Bill Laswell always wanted to work with Miles, but re-mixing his music doesn't count. Bill Laswell

I didn't even think about that. I was thinking FZ < George Duke < Billy Cobham < Miles Davis, but that works too. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/MysticBoogy" rel="nofollow - My Last.fm |

Huh, I thought Fripp => Theo Travis => Steven Wilson => Adam Holzman => Miles Davis. The 70's were just too inbred :3 gg |
