Miles Davis at Carnegie Hall 1961 and Birth of the Cool

Since you like Kind of Blue, you should also like Miles Davis at Carnegie Hall 1961. Some of the same musicians like Jimmy Cobb, Paul Chambers and Wynton Kelly, plus some gorgeous arrangements from Gil Evans. It's great album. And if you like this one, try Quiet Nights with mostly the same personnel and Gil Evans arrangements. 1963.

But how about Birth of the Cool? Another great and groundbreaking album featuring the likes of Gerry Mulligan, John Lewis, J J Johnson and Lee Konitz. Jazz history! Amazing that these tracks were recorded in 1949-50. Way, way ahead of their time.
