Enjoying an old favorite these days

Although it surrounded me as a youth, I took my time coming around to the allure of JAZZ. The past couple days, I've been listening to the album that helped me overcome my initial apathy.
"'58 SESSIONS (FEATURING 'STELLA BY STARLIGHT')" is an often-overshadowed entry in the discography of MILES DAVIS.
It's pivotal, though, and I count it among my favorite albums.
John Coltrane, Cannon Adderley, Bill Evans, Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb combine with Davis on this album, as they would later on "KIND OF BLUE."
Music writer Nicholas Taylor called "'58 Sessions":
"An interesting and puzzling period piece, documenting the sextet exploring a sound that would soon morph into the rich tapestry of their 1959 masterpiece... It is the snapshot of a group of musicians on the verge of greatness."
It's a thoroughly enjoyable album, which makes it easy to listen to it repeatedly -- as I have the past two days!
