Vote Miles T-shirt - Purple
Our ""Vote for Miles"" shirt, pays tribute to Miles Davis’s groundbreaking album, ""On the Corner."" This album marked Miles' deliberate effort to connect with the younger generation and challenge the conventional norms of jazz music in the 1970’s. By infusing the trumpet, saxophone, and guitar, Miles revolutionized jazz, laying the groundwork for a new era of musical exploration.
The inspiration behind the artwork of this album cover, by Corky McCoy, was to capture the essence of Blaxploitation, aiming to resonate with young Black Americans, of the time, all through the perspective of Miles' closest companion. From the Sly Stone youth with a ""Vote Miles"" shirt to the sleek neon suit of an older black man, McCoy showcases black life from a unique standpoint all in one cover. Vote Miles!
