It Never Entered My Mind

I'm always thinking about creating. My future starts when I wake up every morning ... Every day I find something creative to do with my life.

Perfect inspiration for a rainy day.

MILES DAVIS - IT NEVER ENTERED MY MIND

Props to Jaker.

*late pass*

i have a different version of this floating around somewhere, with less pronounced piano playing. Good look Duke, I like this version just as much.

Hi DUKE, found this by blog by chance really love jazz and Miles is one of my favourite. In this weeks I'm listening to many reenditions of this fine song the Miles Davis one is one of the best. For Your info Davis recorded this tune at least two times in the fifties.
The first version in 1954 with a quartet the second in 1956 again with a quartet taken from his famous quintet with John Coltrane.
The version here contained is the second one but the first is perhaps even better!
