Solid article, and a nice introduction to Davis and his work - but it really, *really* oversimplifies his body of work post-”Kind of Blue”. To not even mention “Sketches of Spain” or “Bitches’ Brew” (and to show that really crappy 80’s video as the only example of his post-KOB work) really discredits the innovation he continued to display throughout the rest of his career. It’s hard to argue with the fact that “Kind of Blue” is his signature work, but he had plenty left in the tank after that, and I hope folks who are newly discovering him here won’t be deterred from checking out his later stuff.
