Kind of Blue

Product Information

It may seem ironic that the biggest-selling album in jazz history is such a subtle and understated beast - perhaps less so when you consider it as a sublime masterpiece of subtlety and understatement. Kind of blue , due to its commercial success is sometimes given a wide berth by jazz purists who insist there is better stuff out there.

Miles remained proud of the album, performing at least two of its tracks — “So What” and “All Blues” — for years after, until his musical path took him in a different direction. Language - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description. If you enjoyed this or even read more than a paragraph, let me know what record you'd like to see me review next. Existe una versión remasterizada y en vinilo de 180 gr, con dos discos con piezas añadidas y tomas alternativas que merece la pena; yo la poseo en CD y está muy bien. Regarded as Davis’ masterpiece, it is also reckoned to be the best selling Jazz album ever, with shipments estimated at over 5 million copies.Recorded back in 1959 on 3 - track tape and remastered for this edition by Mark Wilder, who was clearly on a mission to produce not only the best quality of sound but also an authenticity of the sound at that time, the result is stunningly good. In its three-decade-plus history, Mobile Fidelity has never been prouder to have the honor of handling efforts as important as Davis' key recordings. The whole has a weightless and haunting quality, sustained by steady, unhurried tempos and a balance of sound that has rarely been equalled in the history of jazz recording.
