Miles Davis - The Kind Of Blue Sessions

NOTE: The sound is direct from uncompressed .flac files (not such a good idea for YouTube - I was hoping for a "high-quality selection"). You probably should adjust your audio (talk about transient waves!!).

False starts and un-faded endings, from the greatest (selling) jazz album of all time (plus added video). It's easy to see why - I haven't met anyone yet who doesn't like it (especially women). It was a sort of Led Zeppelin IV for its age, I suppose (only 12 years separates them).

I'm a huge Miles fan (check the video response) - I even wanted to join his band, after seeing them live (in Sydney) in 1988. But that's another story - it's on my MySpace blog (Benny said I should have asked - but I'd just started my law degree).

My uncle Al (van) Starrex made a name for himself as a jazz writer and reviewer in New York. Before that, he was a jazz radio broadcaster (and worked on some famous movies*) in Ceylon/Sri Lanka. He interviewed Dizzy Gillespie - and check the liner notes of (most of) the early Robert Parker "Jazz Classics In Stereo" CDs.
