Listen to this when
Kind of Blue
Miles gave his band a few scales and said: play. Sometimes you don't need the whole plan, just the next note. 🎺 #KindOfBlue
Who it's for
Davis gave the players scales rather than dense chord changes, so the music moves slowly and spaciously, with long stretches on a single mode.
