Pros: Five absolutely flawless songs, the sextet at their finest. Cons: None whatsoever.
Nowadays it's pretty much passe to say that Kind of Blue is the best Miles Davis album, maybe even the best album in jazz history. And, while it's hard for me to pick a favorite from Miles Davis' lengthy studio catalog (a catalog which I've explored ...
Pros: Simply a delight to listen to; you just have to read on Cons: Only runs for an hour?!?
Every now and then, an album will come along to completely re-define a genre; influence upcoming generations of musicians and be forever regarded in the highest echelons of music. Pet Sounds (The Beach Boys) did it, Sgt. Pepper’s ...
Life. That’s what Kind of Blue sounds like. I didn’t say that, a friend did. But, he pinpointed why Kind of Blue is the album that it is. It sounds like life. A person hears it and they subliminally relate to it. They ...
Pros: It's one of the most significant jazz releases Cons: None
"The music has gotten thick....". That was part of a quote from the legendary Miles Davis describing how modern jazz was becoming too elaborate and was losing its simplistic appeal. He explained how modern jazz music was becoming too ...
Miles Davis has always been one of my favourite trumpet players and a personal idol of mine (I'm a trumpet player too). Davis was immediately recognized for his undeniable talent during the early 50s period of 'hot jazz'. His ability to seemingly hit ...
Pros: Miles Davis, Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane Cons: none
When you're a kid and you don't know anything about music and you think about what jazz sounds like, this is what you think about. This is quintessential jazz. The line-up on this recording is amazing, Davis with John Coltrane & Cannonball Adderley is...
Pros: Legendary Desert Island Material from Beginning to End Cons: None
What can anyone say of this album that has not been said before. It's quite probably the best recording of any music, any time in the 20th Century. If a more engaging masterpiece exists in jazz or any other musical idiom, I've not encountered in this...
Pros: A forward-looking, innovative and simple work of 20th Century art Cons: N/A
Any jazz musician/fan worth their salt has heard of Miles Davis. In fact, more to the point, any musician worth their salt has heard of Miles Davis. No, come to think of it, anybody with even the vaguest interest in 20th Century music has heard of Miles...
Pros: All Star Line Up, Miles' best work, a classic recording, alt take of flamenco sketches Cons: None
This is the best jazz album of all time. Every musician of every genre knows this album and you should too. It is not only great jazz but great music. Recorded in 1959, Kind Of Blue truly has an All-Star line up. Miles Davis on trumpet (muted),...
Pros: The music on this recording has the great and perfect balance in Structure,Melody and Improvisation! Cons: Absolutely none,who have?
Absolutely, the music on Kind of Blue are great! In these days, I have listened this recording several times, again and again. I ever listened this album first in mp3 version and there are two tracks in my Miles Davis and John Coltrane compilation,...
This was the first Jazz album I ever bought. it was recommended to me by my jazz piano teacher. A few days later i went and I bought it from one of the local music stores. I came home and immediately started to listen to it. I still listen to it...
Pros: Great remastering, excellent musicians, bonustrack Cons: I'd like to hear more action (but that's personal)
Kind Of Blue is probably the most influential jazz album ever released. This best-selling record has been remastered for re-release in 1997. It’s the album every jazz-loving person must have in his/her collection. Made by the best musicians...
Pros: Fantastic improvisation fueled by beautiful compositions. Cons: Only five songs.
Few albums define an entire genre the way Miles Davis's "Kind of Blue" defines jazz. Though jazz has gone through countless incarnations since it's birth over a century ago, "Kind of Blue" is the single most recommended album for "jazz newbies," and...
Pros: Regarded as Classic, essential to every music collection. Cons: By who?
Having recently returned from Europe, I am perplexed with the notion of classical art. We as a society have classified certain works as the masterpiece of their respective field. The Mona Lisa, The Sistine Chapel, Chartres Cathedral, Beethoven's 9th,...
