Tutu ist ein Jazzalbum des amerikanischen Trompeter Miles Davis, das 1986 bei Warner Bros. Records veröffentlicht wurde. Miles Davis erhielt für seine Soloperformance den Grammy, Eiko Ishioka, die das von Irving Penn fotografierte Cover entwarf, erhielt einen Grammy für ihre Arbeit als Art Director. Der Titel des Albums wählte Miles zu Ehren von Desmond Tutu, der ebenfalls 1986 erster schwarzer anglikanischer Erzbischof von Kapstadt, Südafrika, wurde. Es wurde neben Kind of Blue eines der bestverkauften Alben von Davis.[1]
Entstehung
Tutu war Miles Davis’ erstes Album, nachdem er seine mehr als 30-jährige Zusammenarbeit mit CBS beendet hatte. Miles arbeitete unter anderem mit dem Bassisten Marcus Miller zusammen.[1] Miller, der in seiner Karriere schon als Sideman und Arrangeur für Davis gearbeitet hatte, schrieb sechs Stücke des Albums, eins davon in Kooperation mit Davis, die zwei anderen stammten von George Duke und Scritti Politti. Er produzierte auch das Album, zusammen mit Tommy LiPuma, der Davis zu Warner geholt hatte.[1]
Ursprünglich steuerte Prince einen Song mit Namen Can I Play with U? für das Album Tutu bei, doch Prince’ damaliger Saxofonist Eric Leeds sagte im Jahr 2016: „Es gab Leute im Miles-Davis-Lager, die großes Interesse daran hatten, einfach nur, um einen Prince-Song zu haben, als eine Art Gütesiegel. Miles spielte Trompete dazu ein. So hoch der Coolness-Faktor, auf einer Miles-Davis-Platte zu sein, auch gewesen wäre, der Song war einfach nicht gut genug und wurde nie veröffentlicht.“[2]
Die Musik von Tutu ist an den Sound der 1980er Jahre angelegt mit vielen R&B- und Funk-Elementen. Das Stück Full Nelson bezieht sich auf den südafrikanischen Politiker Nelson Mandela und ist gleichzeitig eine Referenz an eine frühere Davis-Komposition, Half Nelson, die nach dem Bebop-Jazz-Bassisten Nelson Boyd benannt war.

Tutu is a jazz album by American trumpeter Miles Davis, released on Warner Bros. Records in 1986. Miles Davis received the Grammy for his solo performance, Eiko Ishioka, who designed the cover photographed by Irving Penn, received a Grammy for her work as an art director. The title of the album was chosen by Miles in honor of Desmond Tutu, who also became the first black Anglican archbishop of Cape Town, South Africa in 1986. It became one of Davis' best-selling albums alongside Kind of Blue. [1]
Emergence
Tutu was Miles Davis ’first album after ending his 30+ year collaboration with CBS. Miles worked among other things with the bass player Marcus Miller. Miller, who had worked as a sideman and arranger for Davis in his career, wrote six pieces of the album, one in cooperation with Davis, the other two by George Duke and Scritti Politti. He also produced the album, along with Tommy LiPuma, who had brought Davis to Warner. [1]
Prince originally directed a song called Can I Play with U? for the album Tutu, but Prince's then saxophonist Eric Leeds said in 2016: “There were people in the Miles Davis camp who were very interested in just having a Prince song as a kind of seal of approval . Miles played the trumpet. As high as the coolness factor of being on a Miles Davis record was, the song was just not good enough and was never released. ”[2]
Tutu's music is based on the sound of the 1980s with many R&B and funk elements. The Full Nelson piece refers to the South African politician Nelson Mandela and is at the same time a reference to an earlier Davis composition, Half Nelson, which was named after the bebop jazz bassist Nelson Boyd.
