Benny Goodman and Miles Davis...Benny's heyday was before my time, but I do remember Miles being on a really creative roll when I was fairly young...
I don't however, recall any of my elders saying about Miles Davis "Oh, he sounds just like Benny Goodman back in my time…"
And as I always say, music appreciation is subjective and purely personal opinion...but we can all hang out and sing & dance on the same lawn...
