"One of numerous Miles' compilation cds, "Blue Miles" is not terribly extraordinary as a set, though the individual tracks, from 1955's "Round Midnight" to 1967's "Sweet Pea" (a Wayne Shorter track recorded during the "Sorcerer" sessions, but landed on the rare "Water Babies" import prior to being placed on the gorgeous 1965-68 Complete sessions 6 cd set)are gens unto themselves.My caveat with any compilation cd,(I can't stand them..buy the original lps) but especially because Miles has had so many of them made, is to look over those you are interested in, and see where your interests lie. Each period of Miles' music is so radically different from each other (indeed, lps within the periods are different from each other, as well) that many of these cds don't flow well, so be careful.Good songs and perhaps a decent primer for a Miles novice."

"...man, i jus love me some jazz-blues...makes me wanna sit back sip on some liquor and smoke some cigars (and i dont smoke!)...this is a very decent compilation...but with an artist such as miles davis who has out tons of material..., sometimes this is the best way to go about it...
i'm jus a music junky tho...and bought this primarily because i liked the cover art!!...but if yall need some FOR REAL downtempo music, then this is that cd that is gonna satisfy you, fasho..."

"Blue Miles compiles eight low key tunes from 8 different Miles ablums, including one track (Blue & Green) from "Kind of Blue". The eight tracks brought together here create a "Kind Of Blue" mood. If you like the mood of "Kind of Blue" I would suggest you purchase "Blue Miles""
