Miles Davis - In A Silent Way/It's About That Time



This is my favorite Miles tune that I've ever heard. So is the other track on this album, "Shhhh...Peaceful". Both clock in around the 20 minute mark. If this is your first foray into jazz then I wouldn't recommend this song, try Davis' "Kind of Blue", Dave Brubeck's 1961 album, or Oliver Nelson's "Stolen Moments". HOWEVER!, if you stumble across The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions (on certain websites that offer files for less one cent, wink wink) which spans 3 or 4 albums and has varied song lengths for those who find long songs difficult, get it! Enough rambling.
