Sleek production, covers, and a lot of quotes from #jazz classics, including #MilesDavis (see album title). Nice to listen to.

On this day in 1959 Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" was released which is regarded by many critics as jazz's greatest record, Davis's masterpiece, and one of the best albums of all time. Its influence on music, including jazz, rock, and classical genres, has led writers to also deem it one of the most influential albums ever recorded.
