The Making of Kind of Blue (boot)

Recommended Posts

I gave a CDR "pro-looking" boot of this a spin at Euclid Records about six months ago. Didn't end up buying it ($20 for a CDR was a bit more than I could justify), but as I recall -- hearing it over the speakers of the store -- there were several breakdowns (two or three or four per tune, many of them pretty short), and a fair bit of studio chatter than I'd never heard before (and that weren't on the Columbia box).

There's a little bit of this stuff on the Columbia box, but not as much as is available.

Hey, come to think of it, all this is on the Miles Ahead site...

Links: March 2, 1959 (41 items; TT = 40:29) and April 22, 1959 (17 items; TT = 36:42)

All the studio chatter has been transcribed at the above links, with every track identified - including the length of each breakdown.

If the boot you're talking about is in the neighborhood of 77 minutes long, then that would be the most complete issue of the two KOB sessions available.
