Which Jazz Albums are similar to Kind of Blue

The Cannonball Adderly offerings with Bill Evans and Milt Jackson are must haves. Now they are more boppin than KOB but if you buy the re mastered extended CD's the sound will not disapoint.

while kind of blue is an album on its own league (that's what makes it so remarkable too) you might want to try Coltrane's Blue train. this is an all-assault on melodies and rhythm. you won't believe your ears and your foot will never stop tapping to the beat.
other recommendations:
john coltrane 'my favorite things'
john coltrane 'giant steps'
the collaboration albums between ella Fitzgerald and louis armstrong (they're all great stuff!)
sonny clark 'cool struttin'
kenny dorham 'quiet kenny'
kenny dorham 'whistle stop'

and there are many others, but this is a good start!
best wishes!

I can't imagine that you wouldn't also love Miles' "In A Silent Way". Great discs to play one after the other.

Thank you guys for your suggestions. I have sampled all the music up to Cdelplato's post, and here is how I rank them (these are already on my Amazon wish list!)

1. Gene Ammons: Boss Tenor
2. Cannonball Adderley: Somethin' Else
3. Ben Webster: At the Renaissance
4. Miles davis: relaxin'
5. john coltrane: my favorite things
6. Sonny Clark: Cool Struttin
7. Kenny Dorham: Whistle Stop

Sorry Cdelplato, but "In a Silent Way" does not cut it for me. may be the sample on amazon is to short to feel it. Any other suggestions?

Thanks
