While more recent studies revisit his 1960s and 1970s work, Davis' later engagements with music, fashion, and the mainstream media are ripe for reassessment. \u003cem\u003eRethinking Miles Davis\u003c\/em\u003e confronts familiar narratives about Davis and his music through a range of perspectives: from the ways Davis pushed jazz into new genre forms, re-envisioned jazz standards, and collaborated musically, to his role in the record companies that released his music, the persona he developed in video, film, and fashion, and how his masculinity manifested both professionally and personally. The collection includes a photo-essay of international jazz musicians' take on Davis' albums in which each musician explains the personal significance of a favourite recording. Ultimately, \u003cem\u003eRethinking Miles Davis\u003c\/em\u003e challenges the orthodoxy of jazz criticism, repositioning Miles Davis within a larger framework of modernism and mass culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roger Fagge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0190085800\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780190085803\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Roger Fagge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447251054847,"sku":"9780190085803","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bf77358c-a464-4048-90bb-a45ca073c8c4.jpg?v=1777229856","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rethinking-miles-davis-roger-fagge-9780190085803","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
