Jack Chambers breaks his silence to discuss the extent of the "borrowing" and who was responsible. Here is the last word on the music and controversial life of Miles Davis.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Jack Chambers, </b> the author of several books, lives in Canada, where he is professor of linguistics at the University of Toronto.
