Kind of Blue

Kind of Blue by Miles Davis is an absolute classic and one of the most important jazz records ever made. Beyond the music itself, this 180-gram pressing is excellent. The vinyl feels substantial and well made, and the pressing quality is very clean. Surface noise is minimal, with quiet backgrounds that really let the music breathe. The soundstage is wide and natural, with great separation between instruments and a warmth that suits this album perfectly. The dynamics come through beautifully — the horns have body without harshness, the bass is full and controlled, and the cymbals sound smooth and natural. It’s the kind of pressing that encourages you to sit back and listen all the way through. A timeless album paired with a high-quality pressing. This is an essential record and a fantastic addition to any vinyl collection, especially if you appreciate well-pressed, great-sounding jazz on vinyl.

It was a gift and the recipient was so pleased. It was on his wish list for years!

Love this album!

Miles is the best of all time! An amazing record. (arrived promptly too..)

ive become extremly jaded at the jazz releases in recent years. how many miles compilations do we need with clever titles like cool miles or love miles or the countless rvg reissues that have been rereleased twice in 10 years, while other music sits in the vaults. but here is a package that i must admit, i could not resist.the coffee table book included is well made loaded with great photos and commentary, all be it ,commentary weve heard a 1000 times[this is assuming that people who havent all ready fell under the spell of this masterpiece arent buying this ].this is probably an insiders purchase, those who have made love with this music setting the mood.those who have sit alone on a rainy day watching the rain pelt the ground[porgy and bess is good for that too]and those who always return to this time and time again, it is the rosetta stone of modern jazz.and i cant seem to shake its spell ,i first heard it 10 years ago, i am now 36 and i of course went head long in to miles's music as well as modern jazz and jazz rock fusion due too jazz, i just wish i would have listened to kind of blue and modern jazz sooner.i feel i wasted the first 26 years of my life listening to meaningless drivel.i remenber the first few times i listened to this, how meloncholy it was, how simmering with a slow burning heat it had . "blue in green" my favorite tune from the album has this desolation, this lonely dark brooding inner looking quality. when miles comes in with that harmon mute, he saying yeah man, i understand. life is tough some times.man that tune cuts you to the core.every composition has its own story to tell,so what, with that mysterious intro and laid back feel , freedie freeloader, with its uptown strut, its happy go lucky approach, all blues with its strolling down the street ,enjoying the sights and sound of a casual walk. and flamenco sketches, also back to that lonely blue in green feeling ,but this time with a little hope sprinkled in, i must tell you personally i have realy felt as is i got my moneys worth, the full size poster, the book, the lp, the 8 by 10 photos, bill evens's hand written liner notes.this is a celebration of the greatest jazz album of all time. and ime glad im able to enjoy this. i highly recommend this to all who have a passion for this album. if you haven't heard it. just buy the cd. discover its greatness. then later on down the road, this will be waiting . [the lp does have a warmer sound than the cd , but make sure you judge it by a good top quality turn table and tone arm, a gold needle would help too, grannies 60 year old high fi with the original needle wont cut it].

Great sounding!

Excelente producto. Es perfecto para quienes coleccionan vinilos. Es un clásico que definitivamente vale la pena tener en cualquier colección. La entrega se demoró un poco más de lo inicialmente indicado, probablemente por ser diciembre, pero valió totalmente la pena. Era un regalo de Navidad para mi hijo y quedó muy feliz con el álbum.

Classical Miles Davis album. Good pressing. Should last forever. That being said, there is no noticeable fidelity difference next to some of my original 70s and 80s Mobile Fidelity or Nautilus Recording pressing vinyls.
