Blu-Spec Kind Of Blue


Finally listened to my new Blu-spec copy of Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue". I consider this version of "Kind of Blue" outstanding. If you 1. like this album and 2. have a CD based system I would recommend seeking this one out. I think you will be happy.

This is not a BluRay disc. It is a regular old redbook CD that sounds excellent. As I mentioned in my initial post, recommended for those with CD based systems only.
BTW: I'm not doing BluRay either.....
I'm sick of the "merry-go-round" as well!
Released 12/24/08 in Japan and now OOP. Just the best redbook CD version of this title I have heard and meant as a heads-up for anyone who might be interested. Never intended to start any controversy over formats or whatever. Certainly not to be construed as an endorsement of Sony or Blu-Ray (or even Miles Davis for that matter).
Kgturner,
I've never been sure if that "hiss" was a result of rubbing a brush around on the snare, from the recording process or both. Maybe some one could illuminate us on this point.

I have other jazz CDs where I'm pretty sure the sound's coming from a brush. Whatever though, it can drive you crazy.
Blu-Spec2 release coming 9/11/13. I have absolutely no idea how significant the difference from Blu-Spec will be if any.
I'm just about finished buying Kind Of Blue. Besides, the K2 HD version is very, very nice.
