Decoy is a 1984 album by the famous jazz musician Miles Davis, recorded in 1983. Robert Irving III on keyboards took over the role that Miles had assumed with a true sense of harmony and only a rudimentary mastery of synthetic sounds and movements. Irving shared the responsibilities of directing with the trumpet players nephew Vince Wilburn, Jr., but Al Foster continued to lead the tempo. John Scofield drew the funk of bassist Darryl Jones in the direction of chromatic abstraction. The two tracks that he cowrote with Miles are fragments of solos, Thats What Happened reprising the beginning of his solo on Speak (Star People).

Decoy offered a good balance between the dominant funk that subsequently took over and the jazz tradition, reflected by Scofields angularities, Marsalis freedom of tone, and the breadth of Miles playing that had recovered its full power.

Decoy is available as a 40thanniversary edition of 2000 individually numbered copies on smokey coloured vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.
