Kind of Blue
 | Average Customer Rating: Recommend This is the one jazz record owned by people who don't listen to jazz, and with good reason. The band itself is extraordinary (proof of Miles Davis's masterful casting skills, if not of God's existence), listing John Coltrane and Julian "Cannonball" Adderley on saxophones, Bill Evans (or, on "Freddie Freeloader," Wynton Kelly) on piano, and the crack rhythm unit of Paul Chambers on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums. Coltrane's astringency on tenor is counterpoised… Product details and pricing info |

- The definition of perfection
- If you haven't heard Kind of Blue yet, well, what are you waiting for? Whether you're big into jazz or not, this is an absolutely timeless, flawless album. Every moment is to be savoured. The moods and feelings conveyed here by the music are plentiful and impossible to put into words. Just put this one on and get lost in it, the feel of it. I never get tired of this record.

- I'd take it on a desert island
- Owned this labum for more than 10 years, I love Coltrane (not all), I love Miles (not all), and many others (I recommend Abdullah Ibrahim), but this one is the quintessence, the one I ALWAYS go back to. I just don't grow weary. If I were to take one album on desert island, that would be Kind of Blue.
