Gorgeous music; floats over your senses an' expectations.
Wow, I didn't realize how polarizing this one was. I always thought of it as bein' pretty universally lauded like 'Kind of Blue' excepting of course those people who jus' don't get jazz. But I guess I was wrong. Thas' cool, I like readin' other people's interpretions, whether good or bad; allows me to have a more well-rounded opinion myself.
Tried many times, but I'm not feeling it
I've had this for a few years now. After the mandatory three listens once I acquired it, I put it back on the shelf to try again at a later time. Like other music that doesn't initially take, I play it every six months or so, giving it another go, wondering if maybe this is the time when it'll sink in, waiting for that "A-ha!" moment. Sometimes, like John McLaughlin's "Electric Guitarist", it eventually comes. Other times, though, you just have to finally accept the fact that not every album will find a place in the heart of every listener.
Miles Davis in his prime.
This is my favorite jazz album of all time. Put simply, this was Miles Davis at his best. The notes on this album simply float, and yet it flows together better than anything I've ever heard. The composition is disorganized but in a way that it all makes complete sense. Don't let the thirty second clips fool you. I almost missed out on this because the clips are misleading. I took a chance on it, and it was the best gamble I've ever made. A must have for any jazz enthusiast.
