"Kind of Blue" is an album that all collectors with even a passing interesting in jazz should own.
Some may wonder with Miles Davis's vast catalogue, could there possibly be a recording that eclipses the infamous KIND OF BLUE? Well as a avid Miles fan, I can tell you there are several releases which eclipse it, most notably MILES SMILES.
Jazz is a remarkable musical style because of its innovation and adaptability.

In many ways, "Workin" is my favorite of the 4 lps made that day (Steamin, Relaxin, and Cookin the other 3)for Prestige Records. In my view, Miles' playing on "It Never Entered My Mind" is some of the most emotional playing he ever did..add to that Garland's superbly understated piano and Paul Chambers going so far as to use a bow on his bass to make it "cry" at the end of the piece, and the emotions come out and then some. A true tour de force for this lp.
