I first saw a pic of Miles with Juliette Greco on that bop album "Miles-Dameron in Paris 1949", which is one of the most exiting bop albums of the whole period, in the same line with Parker´s "One Night at Birdland" and "Summit Meeting at Birdland". She seems to have been a very nice girl, beautiful brown eyes and long natural hair. It´s not hard to believe that Miles fell in love with her. But did Miles speak French ? I mean enough to really get to know and understand a French Girl ? Quote

I had known Miles only from one Prestige Record, one CBS Sampler (Greatest Hits) and "Bitches Brew" and "On The Corner" and was just discovering the music of Charlie Parker. And I was completly astonished to hear a Miles Davis who didn´t sound like Miles, sounded like Diz or Fats to my ears and together with Tadd Dameron it was THE SUPER BE BOP BAND for me then. That fast "Wee" and "Ornithology", that incredible swinging "Wahoo"..... almost as good as my then favourite bop album, also on CBS "One Night at Birdland"..... And I liked the face of that little french girl I hadn´t known who she is. She looked like the kind of girls I would scream over, bruneta, dark eyes, just the one you would like to have as a girl friend..... Quote

Usually I don´t like "comics" but to see the one from my second home country , who seems to be most famous to the tourists..... Near my hometown Brașov in Transsilvania is the small city „Bran” where they tell you that it was the home of "Dracula", his castle. But sure it was not because Vlad Țepeș never was there. It´s told that his place was more north, at the fancy old town Sighișoara. Quote
