Miles Davis Review / AC/DC Preview (Album 16)

(Miles preview here) Miles Davis, a classic and one of the best jazz players ever. It's hard to listen to a whole album of free-form jazz though. As good as jazz is, ever time I listen to it, it's hard not to think of a quote I heard once. "Jazz is about 5 different people getting together and playing 5 different songs all at the same time." And that, is the hard truth. There are some parts of the songs that I really enjoy, and some parts that I don't really enjoy. That's another problem with having 20-minute adventures musically. It's also very...dissident. I don't know. It's just hard to enjoy when you don't know what to listen to.

Favorite Songs:
     ...

Album: Back In Black
Artist: AC/DC
AC DC - Back In Black

Release Year: 1980

"By the time of original vocalist Bon Scotts; February 1980 death, AC/DC had conquered Europe, but the United States were still to be convinced. The group was fiercely ambitious, and had recruited singer Brian Johnson on the recommendation of producer Robert Lange... AC/DC finally broke the United States with Back In Black, notching up a million sales annually over the next five years. They - and all those buyers who boogied to the album - never looked back." - Seth Jacobson

Streaming: Radio3.net
iTunes: You can't get AC/DC on iTunes, which I respect. The artists see very little of the money when someone buys something on iTunes
Spotify: ...hmmm. Doesn't seem to be AC/DC on Spotify either. Good thing it's one of the best selling rock albums of all time. You should be able to find it in your dad's old record collection.

This is supposed to be one of the best albums of rock history. Let it be so.
