...Independent from this positive feature of the show in general, I think it should be possible to formulate negative opinions concerning some details... That much from me, considering myself neither particularly hip, cool nor masked.. 'critical observer' may perhaps fit the picture.. (not to forget the possibly necessary apologies for some of my word choices above - heat of the moment ,-).. take it easy!!

Without intending to seek for any artificial harmony here, I wouldn't consider our points all that incompatible.. that is, I agree with you (& "swinburne1000", cf. above) on the fact - with I hadn't seen that way yet, so thanks for the respective impulse - that such a program may break down some barriers between "high" and "popular" cultures (without me liking or subscribing to such a distinction, but just using it here for means of linguistic clarification)...

It's shows like these that have exposed Amercian greats to the non-snobs out there who aren't as hip and cool as your almost all the faces mask

Im sorry that I was in a rush, but that is partially why he whispers. I did a report on it in 7th grade but thats not entirely why.

The measure of the quality of the questions is Davis' responses to them, which I found fascinating. This isn't Down Beat, people; this is a news magazine program aired to a very wide audience who may only have a vague appreciation of Davis. The questions are direct, open-ended, and give Davis a lot of latitude in his responses.

In one years time both Miles & Harry would pass away. Time is valuable.

Harry Reasoners interviewing days are over- so ends the career of a stock journalist. If you could interview Mozart, would you ask him about his drinking? NO!

Learning to spell and knowing your history should be required for posting. Read. Spell-check. think.

No kidding. Harry's questions were just horrible and offensive for even 1990.

too bad an artist such as miles has to find himself exposed to a total idiot like reasoner, whose ways of being and perceiving the world could hardly be more different from those of miles
