Listen "Kind Of Blue - Making The Miles Davis Masterpiece"
Episode Synopsis
“Kind of Blue” is not only Miles Davis’s bestselling album, but also the best-selling Jazz album of all time. The story of how it was created is what you’re about to hear. As part of the Peabody Award-winning documentary series “Jazz Profiles,” this episode about the making of “Kind of Blue” was produced in 2001 by Jim Luce and Ashley Kahn – and narrated by the series host Nancy Wilson. The “Jazz Profiles” shows – nearly 200 of them – are part of the Tim Owens Jazz & Broadcast Collection at the University of North Texas Music Library. In a partnership with Tim and UNTML, we’ve picked a handful of noteworthy shows to share with you. You can find more “Jazz Profiles” shows at the UNT Music Library’s Jazz Syndicate (www.library.unt.edu/jazzsyndicate), and learn more about 32 Bar Blues' clothing collection and commitment to the arts at 32barblues.com
