I was fortunate enough to have seen Miles live twice; once in the seventies (not so great), and once in 1981 (amazing). I believe that Kind of Blue is the greatest album ever recorded of any kind of music. Did I mention that I love the music of Miles Davis?
Miles Davis was a part of the soundtrack of my youth. My dad loved jazz, and had friends way back in the day who would sneak him into the best jazz clubs (back when things were still segregated). I grew up immersed in jazz music. I still love it.
I’m a big fan of jazz in general, but especially of Davis - everything from his early 50s stuff through his later ‘experimental’ work! Coltrane, too. All very cool music!

What an opportunity - twice! He’s back on rotation again.
One of the great advantages of growing up in New York City.

I agree! His Kind of Blue album is one of my favorites.
Glad you enjoyed the post!
