A Couple Of Miles is an unreleased instrumental recorded on 26 December, 1985 (the same day as Can I Play With U?, two days before Slaughterhouse, U Just Can't Stop, Run Amok, Mobile, Madrid, Breathless, High Calonic and 12 Keys) at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA, with tenor and baritone saxophone overdubs by Eric Leeds on 30 December, 1985 (the same day as recording Most Strongest Whiskey, U Gotta Shake Something, and Voodoo Who). It was intended as a tribute to Miles Davis, but unlike Can I Play With U?, it was not intended for Davis to add to. The track was included as the fourth and final track on the 22 January, 1986 configuration of The Flesh album (to be credited to The Flesh), which was ultimately abandoned. Eric Leeds later considered the track for his album Times Squared, but opted not to use it.
