in my opinion - the fact that drummer Jimmy Cobb laid back, and didn’t ruin the music by over-playing, is a huge part of why this album is accessible to non-jazzers.

0:27 and Giant steps

This is the magic of arts:sometimes ,risks are rewarded and you succeed to create pure beauty.There is not one simple explanation:it needs a lot of factors to contribute:good artists,good ideas and a lot of CHANCE....Thanks for showcasing so nicely the beauty of jazz!

When I saw Miles during his comeback tour, his back was to the audience, and he played four notes during the entire concert. When I listen to "Kind of Blue", I hear none of that. Joni Mitchell once said something about not wanting to paint another starry night again, so I am willing to take what I am offered.

Great video Awesome Thank you so much

Cool. Thanks for sharing.
-
Man you're essentially doing a Ken Burns Jazz but better, i'd love to know more about you.
-
The fact that this album was (despite the occasional Coltrane outburst of notes) quite the opposite of the Ornette Coleman album certainly didn’t hurt. It produced three essential pieces of the jazz canon, and the remainder certainly is not mere filler.

Man. Thx you

This is very unusual. It's not only the best-selling jazz album, it's also the very best album in the history of jazz. It is unusual that the general record-buying public would prefer an artistically important album to just some easy popular stuff. That is normally not the case.

✈️ aka cloudydayz365 Nice I'm so glad I subscribed 2 ur ch. 🎺 Kind of Blue is one of my 🎶 favorite albums. Keep up the good work 🛩💜

Players at their top playing unselfish and not to impress. Modal. No strange harmony just to impress that you can play over it. Cobb and Chamber just perfect. The record sound soo good because of the musicians. Non Jazzlistners just go for, does it sound good?. Yes it does.

any chance we could see a vid on the bill evans trio?

Kinda blue IS jazz

1959 Coltrane Giant Stéph !!!!

Seems to me “so what” everybody did their own thing but got back together at the end for a grand finale 😊
-
I owned an original pressing years ago. Meh. Found it boring and traded it into a store.
-
wasn't Gil Evans, part of this album also? correct me if i'm wrong.
