Jazz S01E10 - A Masterpiece by Midnight: 1960 to the Present

Episode Overview

Ken Burns clearly understands that condensing thirty-nine years of jazz history into just two hours of video is unrealistic, so viewers shouldn’t anticipate that. The documentary features a fantastic biography of John Coltrane and includes footage of Miles Davis' incredible quintet from the mid-‘60s. Additionally, there’s a lovely segment dedicated to the brilliant Charles Mingus.
