Everytime I listen it just becomes more and more magical
Can anyone recommend something similar? I've heard Kind Of Blue which I think is fairly bland and I've got Bitches Brew but haven't listened properly yet.. _________________ no fat chicks
joannajewsom's recommendation is good. The Complete In a Silent Way Sessions is a three-disc box set which includes the unedited recordings used to produce the original album, In a Silent Way as originally edited, and additional tracks.
"Kind of Blue" bland? Wow, you really haven't listened to it.
Other albums by him: Birth of the Cool, Miles Smiles, Round About Midnight
Sonny Rollins' Saxophone Colossus is a classic, if you don't already have it. Not quite the same, more upbeat, but still good. _________________ "I'm so ugly but that's OK cause so are you"
thanks guys, got the complete sessions.. i just love that warm, ambient feel with the electric piano and all those little embellishments.. seems hard to come by for some reason
kind of blue just sounds like generic late night coffee bar jazz to me.. i have listened 3 or 4 times, so i won't apologize for that 😜 _________________ no fat chicks
Here's some other great Fusion (genre of In a Silent Way) albums:
Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters
Miles Davis - On the Corner
Weather Report - Weather Report
Weather Report - I Sing the Body Electric
Return to Forever - Light as a Feather
Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Birds of Fire
Also if you don't like Kind of Blue i doubt you'll like maxxy's suggestion of Saxophone Colossus. Saxophone Colossus is Hard Bop/Post-Bop which is far off from the Fusion/Avant-Garde of In a Silent Way. Both great works but very different _________________ "The future is unwritten."
