Sitting here listening to Miles Davis and "Kind of Blue" and now you do this .....

Don't know how you guys feel about contemporary jazz but I'm seeing The Cinematic Orchestra today at the Royal Albert Hall.

I've seen them once before but never at such a major venue. I think its going to be amazing!
