Free Music Review: Obvious remarks aside.
Hit: 4 Stars
I am a huge fan of this album. People who listen to this album are often distracted by the bells and whistles, the fact that it is of course a trombonist doing Kind of Blue covers (where the was no trombone at the time) and yes, that its been spiced up with the trademark Latin arrangements of Herwig. For sure, those qualities do have their merits and this album would not simply be "IT" without them, but for me, the thing I love most about this album is how it manages to capture the atmosphere of the live show almost perfectly.
How often have we heard live albums, particularly featuring the oh-so awkward to record sound of the trombone, where we feel distanced from the music. How it doesn't connect with us the way it should. This album, however, stirs your emotions the way music was made to do. This album immediately reminds me of such classics as Dave Holland's "Live at Birdland" and Maceo Parker's "Life on Planet Funk". People can object and critisise the technical and musical integrity all they like, and I welcome them too, as I do the same, but none of that matters when you reach the breakdown in "Freddie Freeloader" and you can feel the excitement that wants you to applaud when you're listening to this on the bus with headphones. Or when you can just feel the intent concentration of the audience with Herwig's take on "Blue in Green".
All in all, this album is worth every penny, and everyone should hear it at least once.

With Another Kind of Blue: The Latin Side of Miles Davis, trombonist Conrad Herwig reimagines one of the seminal albums in jazz history - timeless compositions crafted and showcased within the framework of Afro-Cuban and Afro-Caribbean rhythms. It is a companion piece to his pathfinding release, The Latin Side of John Coltrane, and it finds him reveling in the company of featured bandmates who draw inspiration and energy from the spirit of Miles. Selections include the entire Kind of Blue repertoire - including "So What," Freddie Freeloader," and "All Blues" - plus bonus track "Petits Machins" from Miles's Filles De Kilimanjaro. Group members include Mario Rivera, Edsel Gomez, John Benitez, Robby Ameen, and Richie Flores.
