Description:
Born in Alton, Illinois, and thriving in New York City’s creative explosion, Miles Davis assembled an all‑star sextet—featuring John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans and Jimmy Cobb—to record Kind of Blue in 1959. Rooted in modal jazz, this album shifted from chord-heavy bebop to scale‑based improvisation, transforming not only jazz but also influencing rock, classical, and even film scoring. Its relaxed yet revolutionary tone gave rise to timeless tracks like “So What” and “All Blues.” This 180‑gram UK import pressing maintains tonal clarity that preserves the album’s cultural weight—it’s an essential piece of any meaningful collection.
