Karma - Miles Davis Sketches of Spain CD

I already have this on original vinyl pressing as well as CD, but i saw it at a thrift store today, and couldn't just leave it to chance.

Truly one of Miles' best and one of the great classic jazz albums of all time IMO.

Slap this baby on and prepare to be mellow, it's a stunner. The CD is basically perfect, the jewel case is decent. Liner notes complete and good condition.

Nothing fancy, just LMK you're in, and I'll send it to the lucky winner next weekend.

    In, "kind of blue" needs a playmate.

    Indeed it does! While I was there I also grabbed Miles' "Porgy and Bess" and a 1956 Oscar Pettiford reissue so it was a good day at the thrift for $9. Unfortunately CDs like vinyl are no longer "for a buck, what the... heck".

    Big IN from me, I don't own any Miles Davis albums! Great Karma, Ed!

    I was just recently exposed to Kind of Blue for the first time, I'll be ordering that one on SACD soon.

    No favorite-ism of course, but I love a Polkie hanging around since '06 with just 58 posts... I resemble that from time to time!

    I'm surprised it has this much interest, and pleased frankly - my faith in the Polkie family is well demonstrated here. It's about the sound and the music after all.

    Brew is pretty out there, goes good with bong water. If nothing else it's impressive for the collection of side men destined to become legends.

    I DID actually pick a winner this weekend - I stopped by to see @F1nut and "Pick"ed up my CRS+ 4.1TL's, stands, and AI-1 finally! Woo Hoo! So apologies to all that were in, I hate to rub it in but I was definitely distracted!

    I will do a random drawing tomorrow and pick a winner!
