Miles Davis – So What?

“So What” is the first track from trumpeter Miles Davis classic 1959 album “Kind Of Blue”. I can think of no better way to start a new blog than with music from this landmark work. The late actor Dennis Hopper, in an interview in 2008 with Men’s Journal, claims Davis named the song after intellectual conversations with Hopper, in which he would reply, “So what?”
