Kinda boring ngl, 2
some nice sax stuff but not much to talk about
Pleasant background noise but a bit boring to me.
Jazz. 🙄
Eh
Bit repetitive
Not a big fan of jazz music. It was objectively good, but it was boring to me sorry
It's not you, it's me. I don't understand jazz
Jazz is not my cup of tea
Ugh. I really wanted to like this but I guess I’m just not that cultured.
Not for me, but at least it doesn’t hurt my ears👍
It's fine incidental music or in an actual jazz club but to just randomly listen to, not really my music. Definitely cool in the right setting.
It seems I am destined to try and 'get' this album every 5 years or so. No luck this time. It still just floats over me without soaking in.
I´m really not into jazz. Even if the album had influenced many musicians and might be instrumental brilliant, for me it´s just background music in a bar. Sorry for that.
I know Miles Davis is one of the greatest etc etc yada yada but this stuff just boooooores me so.... Shoot me I guess. Grudging 2 stars
Jeg var ikke helt oppe og støde. Det er ikke dårligt, det er bare svært at sætte pris på noget som jeg ikke forstår. Det er på samme tid heller ikke muligt at hade det. Bare lidt undervældene.
Boring Origin of elevator music Sax overshadowed trumpet
# 148 : Kind of sound you'd find in one of those hidden bars down the end of the alley way. Good Bourbon, Good cigar, Good Jazz music. Still, I could listen to it, but Jazz just isn't for me, Thanks. Fav Track : Freddie Freeloader
I’ve just never been that into this album
I don't really like jazz that much and I just don't get the hype of Davis. A 2 I guess. It has its moments but I was mostly snoozing while listening (not literally)
Decent but boring
Not a jazz fan, but Miles Davis's skills on the trumpet are amazing. s
at least not long, but meh really
1. zo uuhat - 1 2. freddie freeloader - 2 3. blue in green - 3 4. All blues - 1 5. Flamenco sketches. - 2
The horn is just a little too abrasive and choppy for my taste. Okay in small doses but not over a whole album.
This solidifies it for me, one of the best jazz albums of all time and all i wanted to do was skip every song. Cant do it, just dont like jazz
Just cannot get into jazz. It's just people dicking around on instruments.
going into this, I do not like jazz. it sounds like the individual members of the band do not like each other and did not agree on what to play before they started recording. in So What the trumpet is high skill for sure, it's cool sounding, but it doesn't do much for me. I am about halfway through Freddie freeloader and I am getting a little sick of this! doing homework while listening and idk if it's making it easier or harder. blue in green isn't that bad actually! it is a lot more mellow and relaxing. reminds me of a more subdued scene from monsters Inc. on all blues now, don't love this one very much. sounds very similar to the first 2 songs. flamenco sketches I do not care for.
I just don't get jazz. I can listen to a couple of minutes and then I just want to listen to something else.
2,5
With Bitches Brew and In A Silent Way I understood the praise - I could recognise some pretty wild experimentation and some pretty alluring sounds. With this, I don’t - it just sounds like jazz. Maybe it was so influential that all subsequent jazz music copied it, and that’s why I can’t tell the difference? The music also had no emotional impact, except to occasionally depress me (and not in the good way that music sometimes does). Flashbacks to my 14 year old self toiling through a piece that sounded a lot like Freddie Freeloader during a saxophone lesson might be influencing me here…
Music you hear in a hotel bar drinking overpriced drinks
not in a great mood wasnt feeling jazz
i don't really care that much for jazz it seems, it's like cool good stuff but i don't enjoy listening to it myself, i did enjoy some of his other work like in a silent way so maybe it's just this kind of jazz? guess i need to listen to more sometime
Hmm... Respectable music I suppose but jazz just isn't my thing.
great background music, but not really something I would sit and listen too. not bad, just not my thing
Not my type of music. Still, pleasant enough and miles Davis is a very talented musician. It just comes down to preference. (60%).
Kind of sleepy, nothing special. Sounds like music playing in a old coffee shop.
Just not for me at all I’m sure it’s very accomplished but I don’t get jazz
Background music. Can’t get into it!
I just do not get this.
Kind of sleepy. Heard this one before, but Bitches Brew is far superior.
It's jazz. Not bad, but really not my thing. Did not finish
I just can't get into jazz. Stop giving me Miles Davis albums...
It's a pretty cool album with outstanding musicianship, but at the end of the day, it's still jazz.
Not the biggest fan of music without vocals plus I am familiar with another Miles Davis album which I prefer to this one.
I'm sorry, but I just can't imagine ever wanting to listen to this again. There are pleasant moments, but I just can't get onboard. I tried this album ages ago and my opinion is consistent.
I just don’t like jazz
Nice slow jazz album
Don’t like jazz
Eh, I prefer this over the sound of everyone tuning on top of each other for twenty minutes at a time, but Miles Davis continues to prove to me that I don't get jazz. I just don't understand what makes this so amazing. Often it is boring more than anything, and with how long winded each song can be, it can even be annoying. I could see enjoying this in the moment at a club or something, but just listening? Total bore. Nice piano playing, though.
yeah no thanks
I'm so happy I just disccovered spotifys option to choose other releases. I don't think i could listen to two hours of Jazz in the legacy edition. Also I just prefer to listen to the records how the were orignally released. It's okay, not for me tho.
Yuh this was a yuh / 10 (2/5)
Too jazzy
Came for the bangers. Bored from the rest
I apologise in advance, and I know that to many jazz fans this is heresy, but PLEASEEEEEEE MR GENERATOR STOP GIVING ME MILES DAVIS ALBUMSSSSSSSSSSSS I HATE THEM SOOOOO MUCH PLEASE PLEASE LET ME ESCAPE FROM THIS HELL THAT I AM IN I FEEL LIKE ILL NEVER ESCAPE THE JAZZ AND THE ONLY KIND OF JAZZ I LIKE IS SWINGGGGGGG The last minute or two of ‘Freddie Freeloader’ was pretty good, but 45 minutes of this kind of jazz feels like 500 years of any other genre
Hard pass.
I’m not smart enough to distinguish between this and elevator music
15.06.2023
Bit too slow for me
This album is well played, but it’s just not for me.
This Is Why - Paramore = 4 C’est Comme Ça is the only reason it’s not 5 stars
Fine for jazz but not my vibe
Jazz for people who don't like jazz - the Eminem Show of jazz. Smooth shit but have to be in the mood.
songs too long. not my cup of tea.
I think jazz is just wasted on me.
Mmmmmm..jaazzz
Just not for me. Would I like to sit on a dim room with a few in an audience and watch this live? Most definitely but the effect just doesn’t work the same for this type of music whilst wearing headphones in my pyjamas I can’t give it one star because I appreciate the sounds and I do picture a scene when I listen to it so that counts for something
This was my first time listening to jazz, and it wasn't really to my taste.
This may be the greatest Jazz album ever recorded.
A very talented artist for sure, but sadly not my type of music.
I know I'm supposed to like this album. People lose their shit over it all the time. I just didn't care, and I found it completely boring. It's just not for me, and I'll take the hit for not being able to appreciate it.
Last miles Davis album I said was some jazz and made me feel like gale from breaking bad. That again
Mid
So what är ju jäkligt bra. I övrigt, nej.
Not my kind of thing
It's not my style, but it's a really good listen of course.
Zondagochtendmuziek. Voor jazz is het nog best relaxed, niet zo zenuwachtig.
Elevator music. I can appreciate the talent but not for me
Keiharde Jazz! Niet mijn ding, maar best strak uitgevoerd. **
Jazz meh
Listening in background Jazz just isn't my thing to listen to intently 2/5
Jazzy
2/5 This is the first jazz album I've ever listened to and it must be an acquired taste, because I really didn't enjoy it. Jarring and anxiety inducing. I feel bad giving it two stars, but I hope that later on I can appreciate it for what it is and give it a higher rating that I'm sure it deserves.
Saxofonista con mayúsculas. Con canciones melancólicas y con el ritmo habitual. Hay que ser alguien muy entendido para apreciarlo en su totalidad. En mi opinión, no es un estilo que me guste y siempre lo notaré falto de algo más
Nettlesome~
Not really my thing
listened to a song and a bit. stopped listening after that
I just don't like jazz. Couldn't listen to the whole thing.
So _this_ is what they play on my local classical/jazz FM station when they make the switch at 6PM. Our family always dubbed it 'noisy jazz'o'clock' and had a laugh. "Blue in Green" is an excellent noir track, but the rest of the album is stereotypical unstructured jazz with complex chords, tones, measures and bars that don't usually sound 'pleasant' while still being technically competant.
Finis la complaisance, fous toi ta trompette dans le cul Miles.
I’m no jazz aficionado and the album sounded like one long track. It was a mellow sound and clearly he was a great musician but not really for me so I’m going to be hard and say 2*
No disrespect but I felt like I was at panera
I want to have a gin martini. Two olives. I want to people watch. Or have a classy conversation with a sophisticated lady. Or do my taxes. Or listen to this album while listening to this album.
i understand that he is an incredibly influential jazz player and his music is very very impressive but it’s never been for me. jazz in general is just not appealing because there’s nothing i can do with it. i understand why other people like it and i will hopefully grow to like it but as of now no.
There isn't anything I don't particularly like, but it's not connecting with me for some reason. Not compelled to re-listen or seek out more.
Objectively a classic, but not my bag. Felt stuffy, although it originated as the opposite, I'm sure.
Just felt like some background music to me more than anything, didn't really do much for me.
Lively jazz, and some expert level trumpet playing, but nothing really stood out
Not the first time I've listened to this album. I didn't disenjoy it, but I don't really get it. It sounds alright. Flamenco Sketches was the best bit. On the whole though, it sounds like elevator music to me, inoffensive, mild, not unpleasant... but it doesn't move me. Again I wonder if I'm perhaps just not smart enough for jazz?
Osaahan ukot(/akat) soittaa, mutta kun genre ei muuten kosketa sielua niin kokemus jää vajaaksi.
Jazz! Helemaal kut eigenlijk, maar vreemd genoeg ging ik zonder moeite door dit plaatje heen terwijl ik aan het werk was.
not my genre
Too slow for me
It was okay.
I get it, but it’s not for me
Nice to have on in the background, not my cup of tea
not for me!
Am sure it was influential not my thing though
guess i just don't like miles davis?
It's good jazz. If you like jazz then here you go.
The music was fine, just a little slow for my taste.
Binkety bonkety tootlepops. Couldn’t get into it.
I can't give this album a 1/5 because I'm saving that for albums I feel are actively bad and not deserving to be on the list, and this album DEFINITELY deserves to be here. I feel like most of the songs blended together and it was soothing, but it didn't really do much for me. "So What" was my favorite track. Hope we encounter more Jazz soon.
Nice, but not my type of music
I can't listen to jazz
njä, inte för mig för. för mycket osammanhängade blipblop-melodier.
i dont get jazz
I guess this is supposed to be the best jazz album of all time So I gave it 5 minutes.
Sorry this might be an excellent album but I cant stand it
Niet om aan te horen. Hou niet van jazz. Niet kunnen afluisteren.
Still not a fan of jazz
mind numbingly boring
In a sea off 5's be a one. Jazz puts years on you. I no longer buy into not intellegent enough to understand jazz. It just boring and ridiculous. Loud booty boops then some low booty boops. Tracks start end and start and you are none the wiser as to when.
Full of trumpets and I don’t just mean the instruments
i found it slightly irritating to listen to. reminds me of the grove.
did not make myself finish it. it's like cilantro - I can see why some people like it a lot, but it doesn't work for me.
musica de fondo para dormir
I'm really not a jazz guy, but lets dive in anyway So What is the opener, which meanders around for nine minutes but never seems to go anywhere The next one does the same, just for slightly longer Same for track three, just slower this time Track four creates some tension with the opening piano part, getting my hopes up a little . . . but no 45 minutes of foreplay, then Miles leave the room
Not for me
Nothing will ever get me to like jazz. I hate brass instruments, but I especially hate the trumpet. The trumpet hurt my ears in the last song. I did not enjoy this.
Not my jam - too jazzy
stop i'm so sorry miles davis but you're not for me 😭😭😭
0/5 bekannt 3/10 Beste Songs: so what, Blue in Green, all blues Immer noch zu viel Jazz
not very original man
Fuck off with your jazz. Just background music
Coffee shop music
1 out of 5 I am not cultured or something because this was not for me. It is too bad because I understand he is the greatest but this music did not do it for me.
Apparently, I do *not* like jazz
too many songs bro
boring
No lo escuché x,d
Just not my thing
I understand why people like it, but it's just not my thing.
Terrific album
Jazz again. No thanks.
I once heard jazz delightfully be referred to as “musical wanking” and… yep.
Tried listening many times over the years. I don't get it.
Miles Davis is an amazing musician, I'm just not that into instrumental jazz. Best song: So What
I've tried to "get" this record so many times. Having it play in the background while I do other things, playing it while driving, just sitting and focusing on the music as it plays, I just don't get it. It doesn't resonate with him. I understand while Miles gets the respect he does, I understand technically why this record gets the adulation it does, but I just don't feel it.
A really long and boring jazz album, almost put me to sleep. No standout songs for this one. I don’t like sitting down and listening to a jazz album. I feel like I’m waiting. And waiting for what? Nothing. Just for it to be over.
Fuck rating albums. Just let me listen.
I do not like jazz
After listening to this album, I can confidently say: I still don’t like jazz.
severely old vibes still cool but jazzy and long and irritating - worse than others, not as bad as 2, acc idk might be worse, 1/2 stars icl, appreciate the repetition with a little change tho... sorry miles davis
It's past time for jazz to be cancelled.
Jazzy trumpets do my head right in.
Don't like
not rly my vibe
Ugh, noodling jazz at is most noodling.
Can't hack jazz. Really tried but found it unlistenable. I know this is a personal thing though.
nije moj fazon
Oh joy! More Jazz. I've never got the point of this style of Jazz.
Yes, this is jazz. It is very famous and well-respected. I feel bad rating jazz albums because of how much I do not ever want jazz in my ears. Mr. Davis was very good at jazz.
Not my cup of tea at all.
Incredibly boring, every song sounded the same too. There’s just not much to even talk about
Just don't get it... No discernable rhythm that I can hear.... Really struggling to understand it... What's the big deal????
Not my kind of music
Jazz is just not really for me. I can appreciate the musicianship and the influence this album has had, but as a listening experience it does very little for me. It feels slow and meandering, and I struggle to stay engaged. I know this is considered one of the greatest albums ever recorded, but it simply does not connect with me. There is no doubt the playing is technically superb, and you can hear the skill and restraint in every note. It is just not a sound or style that moves me in the way rock or soul does. Favourite song: I genuinely could not pick one that stood out. Least favourite: The overall experience felt dull to me. Album artwork: A fairly standard jazz cover, understated and serious, much like the music itself
This doesn't register as music to me. I was playing it, loud, on my commute this morning. About 10 minutes into my drive I realised I was bopping along to a song and singing to myself. It was a completely different song by a different artist from a different era. This album is so bereft of anything that I consider music that my brain tried to fill the space where music should be. I value lyrics, melody, and texture. This music is so incredibly bland it's the kind of music you put on in the background when you don't want anyone to notice there's music playing.
Meh
Didn’t ever got going, which I understand is the point but I needed a kick somewhere.
Fuck jazz
Jazz, aburrido
I wonder if suicide rates got higher when this came out
I ALREADY RATED THIS YOU IDIOTS
Eh, it was ok. I can appreciate that Miles Davis is a legend in the jazz trumpet scene, but the album was way too melancholy for me. The tracks were very long and drawn out as well which didn't help grab me at all. Best: Blue In Green Worst: All Blues
I was bad and didn’t finish this. But I’ve tried to listen to this before. I just can’t listen to that much jazz. It just doesn’t click for me.
Ei voi nauttia, ei inhotakaan. Ei mun makuuni.
Ihan kiva kuulla perusteemat, mutta minulla ei ole mitään käyttöä loputtomille variaatoille ja improvisaatiolle.
First time listening to this album. I appreciate Miles Davis and his musical works but listening to this album was hard to get through. I rated this as a 1 since I won’t be listening to this album again
Jazz ...
I'm not a big jazz guy.
Kind of shit
We'll, I listened all the way through. About all I have to say...just not my thing
Not for me
Long blues…
Unlike miles Davis i have not been swayed by the cool 1
Not for me. I don’t like the ‘busy’ sounds. First time listening to a jazz album
Boring, not for me
Boring, as if he is waiting to start playing, finally.
Love it.
