From the mid-50s to his death in the early 90s, Davis was universally recognized as one of the most innovative musicians working in jazz. He was also one of the most popular with his albums regularly breaking into the pop charts and he picked up a total of eight Grammy Awards. He also launched the careers of many jazz musicians. This concert, filmed in Munich in 1987, followed the release of his Grammy Award winning album Tutu and the set list features two tracks from that record, the title track and "Portia", plus his unique arrangements of Michael Jackson's "Human Nature" and Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time." Also included is a 30 minute interview & featurette.
