10/10 for the historical importance of the album. 6/10 for my personal listening enjoyment. I'll split the difference and give it an 8/10. It's a superbly played, well produced, and pleasant enough recording but, to me, Kind of Blue is kind of boring.

Thanks. I watched and read both.

I find this album to be slow and kind of boring. The music is good, but nothing to exciting in a modern context. 6/10. Though when I take into consideration the influence and change this album brought I have to give it another point. 7/10

Current average: 7.85

Spun a brand new vinyl copy today. I'd forgotten how good it is. Easy 10/10.

Hey, Occult, bad news for you. Kind of Blue isn't even Miles Davis' best album. I'm in 1960 now and his Sketches of Spain blows Kind of Blue out of the water. Really looking forward to hearing Bitches Brew.

Bitches Brew is Davis at his best.
