1001+ Albums: 1959

1001+ Albums: 1959

Album of the Year: Kind of Blue Best Album Cover
   Artist: Miles Davis

       Jazz better than anything I'd heard before. Just might mark the moment I really got the genre, although I still wouldn't call myself a diehard fan, I definitely have a newfound appreciation for the genre. It really has a gorgeous melancholy feeling throughout, and makes me feel more deeply than other jazz I've heard.

   Rating: A-

   Artist: Dave Brubeck Quartet
   Rating: B











Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Gershwin Song Book
   Artist: Ella Fitzgerald
   Rating: C











Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs
   Artist: Marty Robbins
   Rating: D+












The Genius of Ray Charles
   Artist: Ray Charles
   Rating: C-
