Mrwigglewm is right. When I first heard John Coltrane's A Love Supreme, I was racing to the volume to turn it down. I was 16 at the time and had no idea how much my musical tastes were going to change. Eventually I fell in love with Coltrane and became an official addict to his music. It was all i listened to for quite some time, and I'm talking the hard stuff( Ascension,Selflessness, Meditations). My point being, stay open minded and listen again. Maybe explain what impressions you had about Kind of Blue that you didn't care for, to help other's with their recommendations.
Jazz recommendations for a beginner?
Hello, I purchased my first 3 jazz cds just to experiment: Cafe Blue (Pat Barber), Love Scenes (D. Krall) and Kind of Blue (M. Davis). Now I want to officially start listening more jazz. I really liked tracks 2,3,4,9,10 and 11 on Barber's cd, almost every song on Krall's, but honestly 'Kind of Blue' was not too much of my taste. So based on this brief comments, has anybody some good recommendations for a beginner? I'd appreciate your suggestions. Thanks.
