Every year seems to bring a new book about the late, iconic trumpeter and musical innovator Miles Davis. But Dark Magus: The Jekyll and Hyde Life of Miles Davis isn't yet another assessment of the man and his music from journalist types. Instead, it's a look at Miles by someone with unequivocal personal exposure to the man at his best.
..and his worst.
