Respect.
You're right.

I forgot a zero.

It should have been 1/100.

If it was any other member than Rubber Soul, I wouldn't even consider any foul play being involved.

Does anyone know of a YouTube video or Article (I'd prefer the video. I'll be able to get around to doing this sooner rather than later that way) that explains the historical significance of this album? I don't think it's right to rate this as a classic or not without an idea of its significance.

Current average: 7.8

Why Miles Davis' Kind of Blue is so great.

Give it a listen, you'll probably at least recognize So What because it's used so often in pop culture.

Quote:
Ashley Kahn, author of Kind of Blue: The Making of the Miles Davis Masterpiece, says that the resulting recording possesses an almost spiritual quality as the musicians — particularly Coltrane — seemed to take a reverent approach to the composition.

...

the disc was quickly recognized by the jazz community as a classic. Jazz musicians were startled by the truly different sound on an album that laid out a clear roadmap for further modal explorations

...

Musicians from all genres perform, record and study the album's songs, and the influence of the songs on culture beyond music continues to grow

...

best-selling jazz record of all time is a universally acknowledged masterpiece

...

the album never wears out its welcome
In other words, unassailable.
