Hmmm, jazz, nice
It's almost 2:00 am, and, having just finished some paperwork, this came on. It's an early day tomorrow, and i should go to bed, but how can i turn this off?
One of few musical artists that is instantly recognizable from the first phrase. That this could be recorded when I was 7 years old and still be as sublime now, is amazing.
Never tire of this album. Our local Greenville Jazz Collective throws in one of these tracks in a set usually.

Miles may have been a real SOB but damn he could play
Aw c'mon. I can't go lie on the living room floor and turn it up because the big speakers are in storage, and besides, we have that hard Mexican tile now...

Kind of Blue is for sure a top 5 ALL TIME album for me and maybe one day BillG will add the "So What" and "All Blues" so we can say all 5 cuts from the album are in the RP library.
LLRP!!
It's a pity that it has never been played...
Edit: Aug 23, 2000. But 15 years later it deserves to be played again.

GODLIKE!!!!!!! ICONIC!!!!!!!
The amazing collection of superbly-recorded masterpieces on this album really helped me get through some tough transitions settling into my first integrations with Japan. My first autumn in Shizuoka, during a stretch when it rained 30 days in a row (I had it marked on my wall calendar), I am sure that I would have lost my mind if I had not had this to enjoy while eating the exquisite seafood and drinking delicious sake and beer, watching and hearing the rain fall...now harder, now softer... This is music that reaches The Whole Soul...
Immediately soothes the soul....
Everybody quick, drop whatever it is you're doing!
Or basically: just shut up and listen ;-)
ps.: middle of a silly May-storm over here, but my nerves are more than soothed

I have a Japanese pressing. My most cherished vinyl (of many). Sublime.
When Miles comes in with that sultry trumpet, the best!
