Which Jazz Albums are similar to Kind of Blue
but "In a Silent Way" does not cut it for me. may be the sample on amazon is to short to feel it.If you are destined to get into this album, listening to a taste on the 'net will definitely not make it happen. It's a "grow to love it" recording, I... 
Donald Fagen's Nightfly - Love it or Hate it?

CD Player recommendations for a SET system

Resolution Audio Opus 21 VS Consonance Droplet
