Kind Of Three.
In 1959, Kind of Blue changed the world of music—not as an album, but as a moment of clarity, freedom, and depth. At its center stood three extraordinary voices: Miles Davis with his cool minimalism, John Coltrane with his spiritual intensity, and Bill Evans with his shimmering harmonic touch. This edition is not a reissue of Kind of Blue, but a look at the creative paths that brought these artists together—and then led them apart again. The recordings gathered here come from different years and sessions. They reveal the broader arc of their artistic evolution: not a shared studio, but a shared attitude. Davis, Coltrane, and Evans did not follow trends—they shaped their own musical language: open, precise, uncompromising. Miles Davis could silence a room with a single note. John Coltrane searched tirelessly—in scales, in spirituality, in sound itself. Bill Evans, quiet and meticulous, made chords glow like light in a glass. Three distinct temperaments, united by the belief that music needs space: for silence, for surprise, for meaning. Their paths eventually diverged—Davis turned to electric sounds, Coltrane to the avant-garde, Evans to introspective nuance. Yet the moment of their shared language still resonates. The recordings in this edition extend that moment—not as an imitation, but as an echo of something rare and deeply alive.
