Cabby drove around all night, killed three people,
然后开枪自尽了
then put the gun to his head.
是啊 那个人疯了 所以呢
Yeah, the guy flipped out. So what?
那位奥克兰警局的警探
So that Oakland P. D. detective,
我忘了他叫什么了 他根本不相信这个说法
what’s his name, he never bought it.
出租车司机没有犯罪记录 也没有精神病史
Cabby had no criminal record, no history of mental illness.
就这么突然杀了三个人 然后自杀吗
Pops three people, then himself?
总之 那位警探一直觉得出租车上还有其他人
Anyway, that detective always thought there was someone else in that cab.
我从来没学会过欣赏爵士乐
I never learned to listen to jazz.
完全是即兴演奏
It’s off melody. Behind the notes.
没有预设曲目
Not what’s expected.
-随机应变 就像今晚一样 -就像今晚吗

大多数人 就算过了十年
Most people, 10 years from now,
还在相同的地点做相同的工作
same job, same place,
每日照旧 一成不变
same routine, everything the same.
为了保险 一直在做相同的事
Just keeping it safe over and over and over.
都过了十年了
Ten years from now.
你现在连十分钟后会怎么样都不知道
Man, you don’t know where you’ll be 10 minutes from now.
对吗
Do you?
小号♥手是谁
Who is that on the trumpet?
他是丹尼尔 是这里的店主
That’s Daniel, baby. He’s the owner.
他演奏得太棒了
He’s terrific.
能不能麻烦你在演奏结束后邀请他来这里坐一坐
Would you be so kind as to invite him over after his set?
我得请他喝一杯
I gotta buy him a drink.
没问题 宝贝
Sure thing, darling.
我当时十九岁左右 就在这里擦桌子
No, now, see, I was about 19, bussing tables right here.
薪水少得可怜 不过这不是重点
The money wasn’t shit, but that wasn’t the point.
重要的是沉浸在音乐中 我做到了
It was about being around the music. And I was.
就说那天晚上吧
I mean, take this one night.
196♥4♥年7月22号♥ 你猜谁走进了那扇门
July 22nd, 196♥4♥. Who you think walks through that door?
再见 宝贝
Bye, baby.
迈尔斯·戴维斯 没错
Miles Davis. That’s right.
-本尊驾到吗 -没错
– In the flesh? – That’s right.
这个世界上最酷的男人 走进了那扇门
I’m talking about, through those doors, the coolest man on the planet.
天哪
Jesus.
总之 他当时要去
Anyway, he had been at a
哥伦比亚唱片公♥司♥录音 就在藤街附近
recording session up at Columbia, up on Vine.
于是迈尔斯走进了那扇门
So Miles comes through that door.
还没等你回过神呢
Before you know it,
他已经站在了台上
he’s up on the bandstand,
开始和乐队一起演奏
jamming with the band.
-那场面一定… -挺可怕的
– Well, it had to be… – Oh, it was scary.
他真的非常投入
I mean, the dude was so focused, man.
再说 他这人本身就有点可怕
Plus, he was kind of a scary cat anyway, man.
大家都知道
I mean, everybody and their mama knew
不要随意上前和迈尔斯·戴维斯说话
that you don’t just come up and talk to Miles Davis.
他可能看上去非常放松 但他其实很投入
I mean, he may have looked like he was chilling, but he was absorbed.
那天有一对时髦的小情侣
This one young, hip couple,
其中一人想上前和他握手
one of them tried to shake his hand one day.
那个人说”你好 我叫…”
And the guy says, “Hi, my name is…”
迈尔斯说 “给老子滚 混♥蛋♥”
Miles said, “Get the fuck out of my face, you jive motherfucker.”
“带着你的蠢女人一起滚”
“Take your silly bitch with you.”
这就是迈尔斯的风格
You know? That’s… That was Miles, man.
当他沉浸在自己的音乐世界中时 他就是这么凶
That’s the way he was when he was in his musical headspace. Fierce.
你当时和他说上话了吗
But did you get to talk to him?
-不止如此 -不会吧
– Better than that. – No.
我和他合奏了二十分钟
I played for about 20 minutes.
难以置信
Unbelievable.
-你表现如何 -我表现如何
– How’d you do? – How’d I do?
跟迈尔斯·戴维斯比 我连屁都算不上
Well, you really ain’t shit when you’re playing next to Miles Davis.
但他一直在带着我
But he carried my ass.
-他说了什么 -就说了一个字 “酷”
– What’d he say? – He said one word, “Cool.”
-“酷” -没错
– “Cool”? – Yeah.
-就这样吗 -没错
-That’s it? – Yeah.
意思是”不错 但还没准备好”
That meant, “Good, but not ready.”
也就是说 “等准备好了再找我”
It meant, “Look me up when you are.”
-你去找他了吗 -没有
– Did you? – No.
我当兵去了 又去做了别的事
I got drafted and got into some other things,
等我回来做音乐时
and by the time I got back to music,
已经错过时机了
the season had passed.
不过 你知道吗 虽然我生于1945年
