From his beginnings in the circle of modern jazz, he came to intuit new worlds of sound and challenge. While the vast majority of musicians—jazz, rock, R&B, otherwise –find the experimental charge and imperviousness of youth eventually running down, Miles forever forged ahead, trusting and following his instinct until the end. Kind of Blue is prepared with love and respect in Scotland and is inspired by the legacy of Jazz great Miles Davis—the King of Cool. Kind of Blue has been described by many music writers not only as Davis’s best-selling album, but as the best-selling jazz record of all time. On October 7, 2008, it was certified quadruple platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America.
