4 stars My first introduction to Miled Davis's (or 'es?) music, as long as intro to classic prog jazz in album form (not just songs). And I came here, as to every new genre and thinks. Think about, how to approach it. From what I saw, MD is skill jazzman, one of the best in this genre. Respected by many, spawned a lot of albums, more than most of bands here. But how about what I actually hear ? That's difficult. I'm not skilled and used to listen jazz. I don't know what to look and hear for, how to take these traits typical for jazz. So I can't tell if it's good JAZZ album, I can just tell if it's good. About what I hear, no what I can compare (not much).

So. Album is almost without vocals. However, there will be voice in the last track, so don't worry. And quite appropriate one to be honest. But that's not the main thing. So far, I can tell that I like this. Not masterpiece for me, but maybe I just can't appreciate it. Yet. Time will tell, so take this review as that I have good feeling about it. It has after all nice atmosphere, I imagine myself, sitting near window, listening to rain, falling down from skies. Melancholy feeling is strong here. And he has Herbie inside (group)

4(+), well, there's nothing I hate, but I have strange feeling from this. It leaves me pleased, but puzzled. But that's probably normal in jazz music. Thinking without words.
