Red Garland, Wynton Kelly, Bill Evans, Herbie, Chick, Jarrett, Philly Joe, Jimmy Cobb, Al Foster, Paul Chambers, Ron Carter, Jackie McClean, Hank Mobley, Shorter, Liebman, Grossman, Bartz, Sonny Fortune, Kenny Garrett, Mike Stern, Scofield are some of Miles' sidemen whose work didn't seem to "fall far short" after they split Miles' group to quite a few people, including me.I love Miles, have most of his recordings, but he temporarily lost me during much of the period Cosey played with him. Opposite from Ratty, I never dug Cosey's playing and I don't miss hearing more of him. He wasn't even remotely on the level of Miles' sidemen listed above.
