Miles Davis needs no introduction to jazz fans, or music fans for that matter. Whether you like Miles or not, just about everyone has heard a cut from his landmark album, Kind Of Blue.
While Kind Of Blue is a great album, Miles has much more to offer than that. Miles fans know this, but the casual fans who have Kind Of Blue and nothing else from Miles should definitely delve deeper into his library.
For the vinyl aficionado, now is the perfect time to take a look at some other efforts from Miles. Four classic Miles albums have been reissued in grand fashion. They are all 180 gram reissues, so these should please everyone, including the discriminating audiophile. The albums are Sketches Of Spain, In A Silent Way, Nefertiti, and the controversial Bitches Brew.
These albums are a real treat, and to have them available domestically in 180 gram vinyl is great. I own the Japanese import SACD versions of these albums, but I’ll still double dip and get these just to have them on vinyl. That’s how I roll.
