The song composition officially credits Miles Davis as the writer. However, there is some controversy that it may have actually been composed by someone else. The American jazz saxophonist Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson has claimed ownership for the song, although it was originally credited to jazz trumpeter Miles Davis.
