In A Silent Way
Miles Davis

Love this album but it was definitely an aquired taste for me. I had it in high school and didn’t like it much when I first got it. I really dig the hypnotic repetition in the rhythm section and the space in “shh/ peaceful” now but wasn’t into it then. I love the effect when we finally hear the full snare and ride during Miles’ solo 13 minutes into “ in a silent way.” Really cool textures and interplay with the organ/ electric piano and guitar throughout. Really love Wayne Shorter’s playing too. Very influential album but there’s nothing really like it. 5
