Among the great electric bassists in the history of the instrument, Marcus Miller is a jazz renaissance man.  He was instrumental to Miles Davis’s resurgence in the 1980s and helps us celebrate Miles’s centennial with music from Davis’s landmark 1982 live double album We Want Miles, along with classic Miles compositions spanning from the 1950s right up to his final era of Tutu in 1986 and Amandla in 1989 both of which Marcus Miller composed and produced.  He will be joined by other members of Miles Davis’s 1980s comeback band guitarist Mike Stern, saxophonist Bill Evans and percussionist Mino Cinelu.
