No doubt these 2 artists are huge music icons, and left immense impact on their respective musical genres and instruments. However Jimi's career was short as compared to Miles' (just check AMG.com), I also think Miles was more important to jazz than Jimi was to rock, but ultimately, I'm sticking with my voting plan of chosing my favorite which is easily Jimi. Sorry Miles, my loss, but I never developed a taste for this style of jazz.
