This sounds intriguing, I'll have to add it to my pile. The movie might be worth a late night viewing too, though I'm not a fan of Don Johnson (well, except for maybe in the cult classic, A Boy and His Dog).

ongoing · 5✭♫: The Hot Spot Dennis Hopper directed The Hot Spot in 1990, and I’ve never seen it. He hired Jack Nitzsche to write the music, and they got Miles Davis, John Lee Hooker, Taj Mahal, and some other really good musicians to play on it. It’s the only record I know of in which Miles Davis plays straight blues solos in front of a straight electric blues band
...there are a half-dozen tracks here where you have that electric pumpin’ and Miles laying down tracks that are just blues, that’s all, but put down your computer or book or whatever and listen to them, and in a quiet way, they’re cosmic.
