First of all, thanks for the reassurance!!! The people I was talking about were the students not the tutors... (one of the tutors in particular got me into some really hip Coltrane stuff). The weird thing about the students is that in other respects they seem to be pretty broad minded, it was just Miles in the '70s that bugged them, like they thought he was a sellout! I would love to come along to the jazz course you mention but I live in Scotland, so maybe I'll leave that for when I finally make it over to the States! Also just out of interest, on some of the 70's albums (Live Evil I think) the liner notes say Miles is playing an electric trumpet...is this a miked up trumpet with a wah, or something else entirely?
