Miles Dewey Davis III (b. 1926 - d. 1991) Trumpeter, composer, bandleader - was arguably one of the most influential and innovative figures in the history of jazz. A list of the musicians who played for him in his various groups would include many of the best-known names in jazz and even rock.

You are invited to answer the following eleven questions about the life, career and musical associates of Miles Davis. Among my resources for this quiz were biographical works by Bill Cole, Ian Carr, Ashley Kahn, and Miles himself with Quincy Troupe. Thanks for taking the quiz and I hope you find it fun and maybe even informative!
