Kind Of Blue (part 3b)
Here's a sample of "So What," the first track off of Miles Davis' landmark jazz album, Kind Of Blue.
What differences do you hear between Ellington & Davis?

Awesome track. Aw man...I want my sax back! I want jazz band back! I want Sutter Sugar back, my stupid high school jazz boyfriend...This ain't fair...I hate being a grown up.
Hey, how did you get that clip on there?
Davis is more modern, I like him better, he jives with me more.
Good distinctions Pete.
They are both beautiful. Duke's is absolutely captivating as the song builds and when it's over, your not ready for it to end. But it's also very formal compared to Miles.
Kind of Blue feels familiar. It has a lot of space...that's what I like about it...it has room for something to happen.
That's the way I like church.
