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

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

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.

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.
