Listener Jonathan returns to the podcast (as all Supporters are welcome to do) to take an in-depth review of perhaps the most influential jazz album of all time: Miles Davis’s 1959 masterpiece “Kind of Blue.”

• What’s the story?
• What makes this recording so groundbreaking and so influential? 
• What is modal music?
• What does the track-by-track analysis reveal?
• What are the connections to yacht rock? 
• Why were so many yacht rockers so enamored with the jazz convention?
• How does all of this lead to Steely Dan (in more ways than one!)
