This is the one jazz record owned by people who don’t listen to jazz, and with good reason. The band itself is extraordinary (proof of Miles Davis’s masterful casting skills, if not of God’s existence), listing John Coltrane and Julian “Cannonball” Adderley on saxophones, Bill Evans (… More >>

I am sorry but this is WACK. Want some good jazz music? Listen to some 50 cent or Jessica Simpson and you hear REAL jazz on the masterpieces they made, well it’s probebly all sampled from this album but this is still boring….

Kind Of Blue is adequate at best. It has no feel, no mood and no form. I do not see what the hype is. Its pretty basic. When I want to hear real jazz, I will just play my Kenny G’s Greatest Hits. Know there is a sax player.

how can someone enjoy the horn when all through EVERY song this constant bass thumping, boom boo boo boom boom boo boom boo boom boom boom boo boo boom STUPID!
that is a stand up bass thats doing that, right? or is it my uneducated jazz ears
Now Sketches of Spain CD. thats what its all about. some bass, but its minimal and in the background, not dominating the songs

Ok, sports fans! After hearing so many glowing reviews of this album and hearing it referred to as possibly the greatest jazz album ever made, I felt compelled to write this. It was about 20 years ago that I first heard this album, and found it to be boring. Everything is about the same tempo. I found Mr. Davis’ playing to be laughable at best. Finally, it’s irritating; and confusing that so many people laud it. DO NOT buy this album as a primer for jazz. It is very misleading to hail this as the ultimate representation of an art form that has had far superior accounts of itself. If any musician showed up on a gig sounding the way Davis did on this album, they would be fired in a heartbeat! If you want to learn jazz, start with Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, and Duke Ellington. I give “Kind of Blue” one star for Cannonball Adderly’s and Bill Evans’ efforts. Otherwise, it is feces hailed as something good-and it is with great effort that I’ve edited myself!
