Open letter to OvationTV

I am writing to you regarding Ovation's butchering of "Miles Electric: A Different Kind of Blue". Near the end of this superb documentary, Herbie Hancock is improvising a tribute to Miles and 2 minutes into it

**HI OVATION TV HERE!! STAY TUNED FOR..." - you are f*king kidding me.

Someone at Ovation must have had love enough for the music to propopse broadcasting this excellent documentary. I have trouble accepting the fact that this same person did not raise holy hell objecting to how Ovation cut in and totally ruined this unbelievable footage of Hancock (which resumes after the host stops blabbering).

This documentary is absolutely amazing. The interviews with the musicians are insightful and brilliant.

What a shame that Ovation decided to piss all over Hancock's very moving tribute to Miles. I guess it's all about the money, right?

I appreciate and look forward to your response.
