A modal masterpiece from 1959, Kind of Blue is a true classic that never gets old, no matter how many times you listen to it. Bill Evans' understat-ed piano is the perfect foil for Miles' melodies, contrasted by the soaring alto sax of Cannonball Adderley; Jimmy Cobb and Paul Chambers keep the rhythm section steady but unobtrusive, allow-ing Miles and Cannonball to shine. 'So What' and 'Freddie Freeloader' are seductive, deceptive gems, imparting all the frustration, begrudging and joy as only a great jazz record can; 'Blue In Green' and 'All Blue' have melancholy hues and 'Flamenco Sketches' a precursor to Sketches Of Spain. Every household should have at least one copy of Kind Of Blue, one of the greatest records ever made.
