Miles Davis, Kind of Blue (1959)
Miles Davis was one of the leading pioneers in jazz, having turned the genre into what we know it as today. Kind of Blue happened to be his 1959 pièce de résistance, due to his incredible presence as a trumpeter, but also thanks to the inclusion of Paul Chambers, Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans, Wynton Kelly, Jimmy Cobb, and even John Coltrane. Jazz fans will generally have a small lecture prepared for anyone who asks if they like this record. That, or $1000!
