This song first appeared on the Miles Davis album "Kind of Blue".
Kind of Blue is a jazz album by musician Miles Davis, released August 17, 1959, on Columbia Records, in both mono and stereo, CL1355 and CS8163. Recording sessions took place at Columbia's 30th Street Studio in March and April of 1959. As of January 16, 2002, it has been certified triple platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America.
Though precise figures have been disputed, Kind of Blue has been cited as Davis' best-selling album, and as the best-selling jazz record of all time. It is also regarded by many as the greatest jazz album of all time and ranks at or near the top of many "best album" lists in disparate genres.
Kind of Blue is not only regarded as one of Davis's masterworks, but one of the most influential albums in the history of jazz. One reviewer has called it "a record generally considered as the definitive jazz album, a universally acknowledged standard of excellence."
In 1958, however, the arrival of Ornette Coleman on the jazz scene via his fall residency at the Five Spot club, consolidated by the release of his The Shape of Jazz to Come LP the same year, muted the impact of Kind of Blue, a fact that irritated Davis to no end. Though Davis and Coleman both offered alternatives to the rigid rules of bebop, Davis would never reconcile himself to Coleman's free jazz innovations, although he would incorporate musicians amenable to Coleman's ideas with his great quintet of the mid-1960s, and offer his own version of "free" playing with his jazz fusion outfits in the 1970s.
The influence of the album did build, and all of the sidemen from the album would achieve success on their own. Evans formed his influential jazz trio with bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian; "Cannonball" Adderley would front his popular bands with his brother Nat; Kelly, Chambers, and Cobb would continue as a touring unit, recording under Kelly's name as well as in support of Coltrane and Wes Montgomery, among others; Coltrane would go on to become one of the most revered and innovative jazz musicians in history. Even more than Davis, Coltrane took the modal approach and ran with it during his brief career as a leader in the 1960s, leavening his music with Coleman's ideas as the decade progressed.
Pianist Chick Corea, one of Miles' acolytes, was also struck by its majesty. He said: "It's one thing to just play a tune, or play a program of music, but it's another thing to practically create a new language of music, which is what Kind of Blue did".
One significant aspect of Kind of Blue is that the entire record, not just one track, was revolutionary. Gary Burton noted this occurrence. "It wasn't just one tune that was a breakthrough, it was the whole record. When new jazz styles come along, the first few attempts to do it are usually kind of shaky. Early Charlie Parker records were like this. But with Kind of Blue the sextet sounds like they're fully into it".
In 1997 Kind of Blue was named the thirteenth greatest album of all time in a Music of the Millennium poll conducted by HMV, Channel 4, The Guardian, and Classic FM. In 2003 the TV network VH1 placed it at number sixty-six, and Rolling Stone magazine placed it twelfth on their list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, making it the highest-ranked jazz album in the list. VH1's Ashley Kahn has devoted an entire book to the record: Kind of Blue: The Making of the Miles Davis Masterpiece. In 2002, it was one of 50 recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry.
The album's influence reaches beyond jazz. Many improvisatory rock musicians of the 1960s name-checked this album, along with other Davis albums, or Coltrane's modal records like My Favorite Things or A Love Supreme. Pink Floyd keyboardist Richard Wright has said that the chord progressions on Kind of Blue influenced the structure of the introductory chords of their song "Breathe" on the landmark 1973 album Dark Side of the Moon.
Along with The Dave Brubeck Quartet's Time Out (1959), Kind of Blue is often recommended as an introductory jazz album, for similar reasons: the music on both records is very melodic, and the relaxed quality of the songs makes the improvisation easy for listeners to follow, without sacrificing artistry or experimentation.
