Ho Hum. I do try, I really do, but I don't get it - a little light noodling but nothing that would make me turn my head if this was playing live in a bar or restaurant and if I had paid good money to see this. . . well, I'd be in the bar with Mrs Poacher.
Sorry.

The only thing I've marked a "10" so far on the site. Definitely one of the 10 albums I'd want on that desert island.

Nice song, though, please, not in the middle of the afternoon. I'm working, not napping.

Such subtle playing. This should be reserved for those nights with your special person. Transcendent.

One of my favourite Albums of Miles, and every time I hear this it still amazes me of the way he plays, so effortless (if thats a word) as its the only way I can describe it, not blown but sort of puffed.

I tried to do exactly that once, and failed (alas!). The ratings kept creeping up on me again, as my sincere appreciation demanded I give some "extra" acknowledgement of (admittedly) lesser works.
I think perhaps it is just impossible to express the scope of my gratitude for a work such as this, and that is my true frustration. It is part of our human condition. The only real solace for this deep dissatisfaction is to create our own art, to offer the very best of ourselves to the world, or to at least one other person. Can it be any other way?
Alternatively, I'm going to increase all other songs to reserve a new low for the likes of this. WTF my ears! |

Miles Davis, May 26, 1926 - September 28, 1991, one of the true greats of American jazz...

I recently read an article on NPR about the top 100 jazz songs of all time, and every track from "Kind of Blue" made the list. The lowest ranked song from the album was No. 36. It's most definitely one of the top albums of all time - of any genre.
