Про длинные соло Колтрейна :)

Although Davis and Coltrane ( who was known then simply as Trane ) complimented each other they had widely divergent styles, Miles sound was lyrical and filled with long thoughtful spaces, whereas Trane's playing was unceasing, "sheets of sound" filled with hundred note runs cycling around the twelve tone scale, employing the use of multiphonics ( having many different notes come out of his horn at once ) Miles greatly respected Coltrane, but often became frustrated with the length of Coltrane's solos, especially when their performing sets were suppose to be 40 minutes and Trane's soloing dragged on the performance for more than an hour. Once he asked Coltrane: "man, why cant you just play the chorus 27 times and not 28"? To which Coltrane replied that he became so involved in the music that he simply did not know how to stop. To this Davis drolly retorted: "Just try taking the saxophone out of your mouth!"
