Top 9 Miles Davis Album Covers of All Time

Miles Davis Album Covers

Miles Davis (Listen Miles Davis on Spotify) was a jazz icon and one of the most influential musicians in his time. However, not all of his albums had matching album covers. Here are the top 9 Miles Davis album covers.

From the jazz age to the avant-garde, Miles Davis’s music is a journey of sound. His album covers are some of the most iconic in jazz history and offer insight into his complex style.

Miles Davis began his career in a time when there wasn’t much that was new or fashionable. Due to this, he had to be innovative with his artwork while remaining true to himself. The jazz era was a time when jazz musicians were still largely unknown, so they had no need for publicity and marketing – instead, they would make their albums under pseudonyms and keep them locked up in their studios (and sometimes were even copied by bootleggers).

It’s not easy to imagine the impact that Miles Davis would have had on the music industry if he released an album (see the search results for album) cover with his face on it, but that’s where some artists step in to fill the gap.

The photographs on Miles Davis album covers are amazing and they capture some important moments in his life. Some of them show him as a young boy, playing the trumpet at Carnegie Hall; while others show him as serenely relaxing in his pool with his wife.
