The high-pitched ka-mate ka-mates at the end of that movie clip are a world away from the chest-thumping throat-slitting war dance of the modern era.

My chosen Miles Davis recording would be ‘On Green Dolphin Street’. It’s the Kind Of Blue quintet with Bill Evans on piano. I had the tune for many years as the first track on the ‘Someday My Prince Will Come’ […]
