I didn't hear Kind of Blue until my junior year in high school. I didn't quite get it, or most jazz for that matter. My scope was limited pretty much to big band stuff. It's this kind of thing that makes growing up worthwhile!

It's great how all art works that way. Is there any other field of study where successful mastery of a topic can be measured by how much you enjoy it? I don't think so.
We're all very lucky people,

Kind of Blue is a great Miles CD, but if you haven't listened to "Ballads" you ought to. It is one of my favorites.

I really don't know how difficult it would be to have a complete collection. My guess is that there are guys on TH that do...
