    I saw Miles live a couple of times but Chaka got him to do something that I never saw him do, smile. This is a beautiful performance.

      He and his bass player also smile at each other at around 01:33. They obviously had a very close relationship.

    Cute lead and follow with Miles and Chaka. Loved his face like "Got her!" Anyone thinking that Chaka was out of her league here is sadly mistaken. She is one of the most prolific Jazz singers, and the lift that she has in her upper register is incredible. She easily scales up to a B5 without even using her head voice, and her total range is ridiculous. She clearly didn't know the song, as she came out with written lyrics, and was enjoying the improv. I will say had she known the song better, it probably would have been a different performance. But they had fun, and it was a nice set. #mastersinsession

      Chaka did a beautiful impromptu job. She grew up to Miles Davis's music and her dad was in a jazz band. That's likely why her voice sounds so jazzy. Another thing that helps Chaka is her superb enunciation while singing out the lyrics, confidence and willingness to patiently sing off the band's performance. She has a great ear for playing off the band. Anyways, Chaka is a pro on stage, make no mistake. Started her stage singing at age 17, and still current on tour... she's no rookie.

    It's the first time I see Miles smile ! I had the immense privilege of seeing him at the Nice Jazz Festival in 1987 (there were also Stan Getz, Wynton Marsalis and Dexter Gordon in this festival, imagine the atmosphere). Here in Montreux this Chaka's improv which would have been requested by Miles, and we can see how he appreciates her, not too often we see Miles smile.
