Yes I like Miles, if by like you mean that I would sacrifice one of my boys (not a reference to children, you know what I mean...) for the chance to have seen him play live during the Bitches Brew period.

well King Crimson was influenced by Miles Davis heavily for all you diehard prog fans.
Miles Davis paved the way for probably everything you listen to today one way or another.
He is indeed great.

I love Miles, in all of his styles: from classic jazz to acid jazz and beyond.

Zappa's Hot Rats is a real contender for the first real "fusion" album. In A Silent Way is electric jazz, not fusion. Hot Rats has greater links, musically, to the fusion movement than Bitches Brew itself, though BB is quite the groundbreaking album.

I voted yes, of course! Bitches Brew is maybe one of my "top 10" albums; In A Silent Way; Kind of Blue (which gets voted "the best" in many polls on jazz albums).
But I don't take offence if people don't like his work - it can be an acquired taste, and sometimes it can seem that if you don't like Miles, you're not cool.....
