The highlight of his career?
Review of Kind Of Blue [Remastered] - Miles Davis by jamiegiles

Advantages: Good
Disadvantages: Bad

...Kind of Blue isn't merely an artistic highlight for Miles Davis, a musician with more than his fair share of artistic highlights. It's an album that towers above its peers, a record generally considered as the definitive jazz album. Or, to be reductive, it's the Citizen Kane of jazz — a commonly accepted work of greatness that was not only innovative but also entertaining, somehow remaining fresh and filled with surprises decades after its original release. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the greatest jazz album ever made, bar none, but it certainly is a universally acknowledged standard of excellence. Even more than that, it's the kind of record that remains enchanting to those that have heard it hundreds of times, just as it will turn jazz neophytes into converts. Why — or how — does Kind of Blue posses such a mystique? Probably... Read review

BRAVO!
Review of Ole Coltrane - John Coltrane by kafouroutsos

Advantages: Improvisation at it's best
Disadvantages: It's sad that there are only 3 songs in that record(+ 1 bonus track)

...write ballads. I know that some people are waiting to get into comparisons with other artists, but I'm not going to do that, 'cause simply you can't do it. You only can compare Coltrane with Coltrane and with no other. The only thing that is certain, is that John Coltrane is the most influential tenor saxophonist in jazz being considered by many pepole as the greatest improvisationalist, even greater for some people than the other jazz great Charlie Parker. So if you want comparisons, please read Mariah Carey critics instead(Sorry Mariah) If you find the last comment irritating, buy the album and you will see what I mean.... Read review

Latin Diva
Review of Silver Collection - Gilberto, Astrud by joannahudson

Advantages: Beautiful lullaby voice, subtle but effective jazz backing
Disadvantages: None, all the songs are classics

.... 23. So Nice. This one is a real classic. No one else could sing it better. Astrud sounds like a child in this song, some great organ chords backing Astrud’s vocals. 24. Let Go. I love this track. It is very up-beat and quite different from the other tracks. It has a great percussion section. All tracks on the album are classics. If you love jazz and latin, then you simply must have an Astrud Gilberto album in your collection. This album in particular is great because it has a lot of Astrud’s lesser-known recordings as well as some famous ones. It is a shame that since Joao and Astrud have split up Astrud has gone out of the limelight a little, while Joao remains firmly in the Latin charts Even so, Astrud has made some great recordings and will never be forgotten. A classic artist who has a stunning voice that will appeal... Read review
