how does this album "finally click"

there's nothing that's hard to digest

>>72942382
I've never really listened to jazz before in my entire life. So I had to wrap my head around a style of music that I was completely unfamiliar with, but I think I finally got it figured out now.

bitches brew is good but it's more in the fusion territory, I'd recommend more classic jazz. Check out Charlie Parker/Dizzy Gillespie's recordings, especially a recording called "Live At Massey Hall"- also features Charles Mingus, Max Roach, and Bud Powell. Any Louis Armstrong compilation is dope, Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald too. Blue Train by Coltrane and Monk's Dream are more classic albums not too out there. Literally anything pre-bitches brew Miles is gold and easy to follow allow with. Source: Jazz Major

it is so difficult to learn to appreciate aesthetic forms with which you have no cultural grounding. one is not necessarily an idiot for not getting it. however we might say if we were being elitist that one's cultural programming has plenty to do with one's ability to access the sublime. i think it would be healthy to have spirited debate on what art really occupies that spot tho. i am ambivalent on these points.

Ok guys I've also listened to Grant Green's Idle Times and it was excellent but not exactly up to the Kind of Blue level. Guess thats to be expected though since kind of blue is such a masterpiece.

>>72942291
Isn't this one a bit more out there? Maybe I'll listen to a few more albums before I get there. i fucking adore the cover though.

>>72942350
I'll save this, thanks.

>>72942354
I just listened to the first track, holy shit this is excellent. Thank you, I just saved it.

>>72942355
I know alot of people worship this guy, Ill definitely get around to him when I have the chance. Thanks for the chart

>>72942460
This is super informative, thank you. I'm very excited to dive into all of these albums.

This is insteresting. I've been primarily a rock listener my whole life, but Ive been trying to break into jazz for a while. Every once in a while I'd put on Kind of Blue but it would always put me to sleep. Tonight though, I put it on, grabbed some pretzels and a beer and watched the sunset outside the window and it just fucking made sense. Blue in Green had me in tears.

You can go right here.

The more jazz you listen to, the more you will realize that Kind of Blue is the greatest jazz album.

not good

or this

>>72942382
Modal soloing isn't something you hear every day and definitely not something you "get" out of the blue. Harmony not resolving to the tonic isn't what most people are used to hearing really.

fucking kill yourself

>>72946341
More jazz. Sessions where Coltrane is less messianic.
Kind of Blues is actually a really nice intro to his playing aswell. It's a quite introspective and easy to listen to style but he doesn't compromise his sheets of sound aesthetic, virtuosity or conplexity to suit Miles' vision.
Stuff like the session with Ellington, Blue Train, etc. Too
Also, listen to meditations or something. Things get waaaay spookier than ALS. Might make you appreciate the length of the road. It all comes out of early guys like Armstrong and Hines and you can follow it all the way along in incremental steps if you've got the time and inclination.

>>72942501
What's jazz or culture got to do with accessing the sublime? That's obviously something art can do, but by no means something it has to do, surely? If art or culture were always accessing the sublime, the sublime would probably become pretty mundane.
