Reviews4.5 stars out of 5 -- "Its ageless cool now seems intertwined with its backstory: Just months after making the album, Davis and most of his sidemen would spin off in different directions, founding entire schools of jazz.", 5 Stars - Indispensable - "Widely considered the greatest album in jazz history, Miles Davis' 1959 masterpiece is a collection of exquisitely melodic and deceptively simple modern jazz...", "The music draws you in with seductively gentle restraint. It's a recording with a pristine elegance.", "...The absolutely beautiful Coltrane solo on the `Flamenco Sketches' alternate is alone worth the price....The restoration of the sound to the correct pitch makes enough of a difference to recommend repurchasing this classic even without the jazz track of the year aboard...", Ranked #13 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "This painterly masterpiece is one of the most important, influential and popular albums in jazz...", "This is a remarkable album. Using very simple but effective devices, Miles has constructed an album of extreme beauty and sensitivity. This is not to say that this LP is a simple one--far from it. What is remarkable is that the men have done so much with the stark, skeltal material., Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century, Included in Q's List of "The Best Jazz Albums of All Time."

The mono/ stereo battle rages on. Or does it?
The received wisdom is that when it comes to old jazz albums, the mono version sounds miles (sorry) better than the piffling, for lightweights and those poor b#/^'3,*s who just don't 'get it'. In the case of Kind Of Blue, I submit the clearly lightweight and piffling opinion that this is a load of old pants. The stereo and mono versions, according to the sleeve notes, were recorded simultaneously, and as such, the stereo is not a fake, electronic, later add-on. In all the years I've seen reviews of Kind Of Blue, I've never once heard anybody moaning about how terrible it sounds 'because it's in stereo', including me. I have to assume that there's a reason for this, the most obvious being that it sounds great in stereo, and it does. Don't sweat it if you hear the mono version and aren't freaking out about your wasted years listening to that terrible pile of garbage that is the stereo version, because your years will have been spent listening to a 100% stone classic that just sounds a bit different. Don't let yourself be bullied by those who tell you you don't 'get it'. This double cd should confirm the fact that really, they both sound great, and you're hearing them remastered by the same company at the same time, so the actual quality of sound reproduction is the same. All that said, I think I prefer the mono version. Maybe.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

RE: Musically Exemplary; Inner Packaging Abysmal
HI folks, I just received my copy of this classic recording. Within seconds of opening the CD jewel-case, the plastic snapped/cracked!, and so now needs replacing. Perhaps the thinnest/flimsiest inner-packaging I have seen to date. Hope this helps. Best, Paul David Seaman (UK)Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Don’t touch it with a barge pole.
The mastering on both discs is truly horrendous, all life and breath is gone from the music, dynamics are nullified everything is dead. Don’t touch it with a barge pole!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
