Miles Davis Podcast: Henry Rollins
One of the most exciting aspects of producing the Miles Davis podcast series is that his influence extended well beyond jazz and touched such a wide variety of creative people. Imagine my enthusiasm when we reached out to musician/author/radio host Henry Rollins to participate in this series and he immediately opted in. I interviewed Henry at his office in Los Angeles and he could not have been a bigger Miles fan…or a nicer guy. In fact, as you will hear, Miles had a surprisingly profound affect on him. – Joseph Vella

Always good to here someone elses point of view that is not nessarily a jazz muscian.
Thanx, guys.
This was the TREAT for the day.
Not only did I find out about a MILES DAVIS PODCAST, Miles is one of my heroes, but you featured another one of my heroes, Henry Rollins.
You guys ROCK.
Again, thanx.
Great podcast guys. Henry Rollins is well-spoken and thoughtful as always, and it was good to hear him speak about another musical hero of mine.
