All of his work with Coltrane is pure magic. Kind of Blue obviously but others as well. To be honest I was never a huge fan of his fusion and later year material, though admittedly I haven't really listened to it that much so perhaps I should revisit it before I make such judgments. In a Silent Way is great, but everything thereafter I'm not too thrilled about.

I know what you mean. But for Coltrane, I preffer what he has done after leaving Miles Davis. My favourite time is perhaps the Quintet with Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Tony Williams and Ron Carter, althought I like the others also. What about the classical musicman Miles, in the Gil Evans' time?

I have to agree that what he did with Coltrane was beautiful indeed; but like in all collaborations, they move on. Sometimes like in the case of Duke Ellington and his pianist Billy Strayhorn, they stay together, but for most, they move on.

Interesting question; I really like him when as a be bopper myself; when he went into fusion(and some may say he helped created it), I kind of liked him but couldn't get into it as much.
