Music jazz musician, composer and producer Marcus Miller pictures (pic) and photo gallery, albums covers pictures. Birth name: Julian Marcus Miller. Born: June 14, 1959 Brooklyn, New York, USA. Marcus Miller biography (bio): Marcus Miller is a jazz musician, composer and producer, perhaps best known as a bass guitarist with Miles Davis, Luther Vandross and David Sanborn. Miller is classically trained as a clarinetist, and also plays bass clarinet, keyboard, saxophone, and guitar, and is a capable singer. As a child, Miller was around music a lot and always fooling around on the piano: His father played piano and organ (mainly in church). At the age of 8 Miller started recorder, and the clarinet at age ten at the public schools he attended. Miller went to the High School of Music and Art (now the Laguardia School of Performing Arts), where he majored in the clarinet. As a teenager, Miller would buy the sheet music to all the popular songs and want to play them. His father would teach him how to just read the guitar chord symbols and make up his own accompaniment. At the same time, Miller was playing bass in some funk bands in his neighborhood, learning about funk and grooves, and relating to people with music. He subsequently went to Queens College, NY, majoring in music education, and continued on clarinet there. Miller also participated in the jazz ensemble there, under the direction of Bud Johnson. During college Miller began to get a lot of work as a musician in NY on bass. Already very much in demand after four years, he decided to discontinue at Queens College and work full time. Miller spent about fifteen years performing as a sideman or session musician and observing how great leaders operated. During that time he also did a lot of arranging and producing. When he began to record his own records, he had to put a band together to take advantage of touring opportunities. Miller's proficiency on his main instrument, the electric bass, is generally very well regarded. Not only has Miller been involved in the continuing development of a technique known as "slapping", but his fretless bass technique has also served as an inspiration to many, and has taken the fretless bass into musical situations and genres previously unexplored with the electric bass of any description. Audible in Miller's playing, along with the rich and undeniable originality, are the influences of some of the previous generation of electric bass players, such as Keni Burke and especially Jaco Pastorius (who himself was only born in 1951). Early in his career, Miller was being accused of being simply imitative of Pastorius (note that Miller was not alone in this regard; Pastorius' influence was — and remains — immense), but has since more fully integrated the latter's methodology into his own sound. Miller has an extensive discography, and tours frequently and widely in Europe and Japan. Between 1988 and 1990 he appeared in the first season and again toward the end as both the Musical Director and also as the house band bass player in The Sunday Night Band during the two seasons of the acclaimed music performance program Sunday Night on NBC late-night television. Along with appearing on many albums as a sideman, Miller currently leads his own band, which strives to faithfulness to the concepts of improvisation and innovation in jazz-based music that is perhaps more accessible to different audiences. His concerts and recorded works are often regarded as intensely creative and therefore appealing to serious musicians. In 1997 Marcus Miller played in a band called Legends, with Eric Clapton (vokal and guitar),Marcus Miller (bass & bass clarinet), Joe Sample (piano),David Sanborn (alto sax) and Steve Gadd (Drums), it was a 11-date tour of major jazz festivals in Europian. Fender currently produce a Marcus Miller signature Jazz Bass in 4 and 5 string versions.
