yes it's simply amazing, i'm not sure wether i like "In A Silent Way" or "Bitches Brew" better but 'Silent' is just soooo fucking smooth as Miles and the guys give the music so much space to breathe. perfect music, couldn't be any better in any way if you ask me.Quote:

I must admit that i gave into it guys - i'm sorry but i bought "My Dark Twisted Fantasy" by Kanye West LOL. i'm not to keen on supporting the guy and making his pockets fatter but the album is just too amazing and i want it in my collection. i picked up the one that has the "Runaway" DVD with it, i thought that would be cool as hell to watch in DVD quality and with the surround system turned up loud while smoking a joint.
i also found these 3 albums for an amazing price, so i'm waiting for them to arrive (hopefully today): D'Angelo's "Brown Sugar", Dexter Gordon's "GO!" and Digable Planets "Reachin'".
yea.. i love the contrast between Bitches Brew and In a Silent Way..Quote:

Kind Of Blue is obviously another favorite of mine..
and you should pick up Miles' - Sketches Of Spain - if you havent already..
as for Herbie Hancock.. Headhunters is a fantastic album..
one of the roots of hip hop.. the funk is everywhere..
Hancock has some great records a couple i would recommend are - Maiden Voyage.. and also - Man-Child..
..
GFK - IronMan FINALLY couldn't get it anywhere
Busta - The Big Bang - heat!
true that, "Kind Of Blue" is one of my favorite jazz albums as well. i've heard about "Sketches of Spain" but i have yet to check out, definitely will though.Quote:

one jazz album i've been listening to quite alot the last few days that i think you might dig based on the albums you recommended is Sun-Ra with the LP "Lanquidity", great shit!
^Sketches of Spain is one of my favourite jazz albums ever, love the vibe of that joint.......... and one track has a familiar sample in it
Kanye West: My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Picked this up on the cheap, it's pretty dope and well worth a look.
