Miles Davis
Can't believe there isn't a thread about him specifically (specifically, not "Who's better Trane or Miles?") He is truely awesome.
Now, I was never a huge jazzman until I discovered the awesomeness of Miles Dewey Davis III. I remember wanting to expand my horizons, because at the time I was listening to almost all hard rock and metal. Where better to expand my horizons then the best selling jazz album of all time? I picked up Kind of Blue and my life was forever changed.
To date, I have Kind of Blue and Sketches of Spain. I also heard the title track of Bitches Brew, and I'm seriously eyeing the album. But you know, I'm eyeing a ton of albums and I feel like I don't know the music I already have well enough (I'm sure you know how that feels), so I'm refraining.
Discuss.
