About the image
Miles Davis exercises in Gleason’s Gym in 1970. At age 46, "He was in excellent shape," Craig says. "He went to the gym just about every day. He used it for the discipline factor, and as a trumpet player, to build a diaphragm and develop stamina." -- Glen Craig

In 1970, Glen Craig was hired to capture images of Miles for an upcoming spread in Zygote Magazine, a feature designed to help expose Davis to a more mainstream audience. He spent three weeks shooting Davis in various locales including at home, at the gym, in the studio, and on stage.
