Why Miles Davis' Kind of Blue is so great.
"Everyone, even people who say they don't like jazz, likes Kind of Blue. It's cool, romantic, melancholic, and gorgeously melodic. But why do critics regard it as one of the best jazz albums ever made? What is it about Kind of Blue that makes it not just pleasant but important?" - sdfx from Bookmarklet

Such a groundbreaking record. Reading about the history and mechanics makes me appreciate the greatness even more. - sdfx
