Mitch Clay’s Reviews > 3 Shades of Blue: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, and the Lost Empire of Cool > Status Update

I’ve always known the names, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and Bill Evans, but I never really put together how much that world overlapped with one another. This is more than just a book about those three jazz, musicians, but much more about how the world of jazz was being impacted by post World War II life. The world of bebop, hard bop, and lyrical instrumental jazz has been incredible to learn about.
