Album #9

Roc-a-Fella Jazz's newest signed artist, Miles Davis, chose to pay tribute to one of America's first settlers on his debut release.

"Listen.

"Back in East St. Louis, m*$!f*&@!*s always call me 'Standish'," said Davis. "I never liked it, but now I'm starting to take ownership of that sh*t. Yuh know? F*@^ you, m*#%@f*@#*s. This Standish m*@#&f*^@* helped ensure the safety of the Pilgrims against Indian attacks. It was only fitting that I pay tribute to this m@#$%f*@#$* on this album."

Thanks, Miles!

with Mike Wofford, piano; Colin Bailey, drums; Jim Hughart, bass; Miles Standish, blunderbuss.
