Jazz musicians are known to be one of the best dressed cats ever, from Clifford Brown to John Coltrane, to the jazz musicians o our time, such as Wynton Marsalis and James Carter. In my opinion, one of the dopesst musicians, as well as the best dressed would have to be Thelonius Monk. He changed the game musically and fashion-wise. Anyways, the first jazz album that inspired me to really start palying jazz and taking it seriously would have to be Kind of Blue. From the simplicity of chord changes "So What" to the outness on "Flamenco Sketches", to the dopest solos from Coltrane and Cannonball. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of "Kind Of Bue", Supreme doesn't disappoint with their collaboration with Miles Davis, putting out shirts to represent "Kind Of Blue", "Nefertiti", and "On The Corner." What takes this collab to another level is that they're re-issuing replica 12" album covers, and re-mastered albums that match the t-shirts...favorite is definitely the "Kind of Blue" liner notes joint...so dope.
