A fortnight ago I reserved a very special release of Kind of Blue by Analogue Productions (AUHQR 0004) limited to 25,000 copies. It promptly sold out so I consider myself quite fortunate to be getting one. The record is on clear 200 gram UHQR Clarity Vinyl (pressed one at a time by hand!), includes a 16-page booklet, and comes housed in a beautiful slip case. But there is no need to empty out your bank account, as this record is available at more down-to-earth prices. As one would expect for a classic record that is 62 years old, Kind of Blue has been reissued numerous times over the decades so you should have no problem sourcing your copy of this Miles masterpiece. If you get a Columbia Records pressing, be sure it is from the 1992 remaster or after, as Side 1 on earlier versions was ever so slightly off-pitch due to a failure to correct the recording speed of the original tape. This five-hit wonder is a must for any record collection. Like any masterpiece, the music holds up remarkably well to this day. Play this record once and the natural high will linger long after. Just be polite and warn your neighbors in advance because you will want to play Kind of Blue so loud Miles himself will be able to hear it.
