Among his most famous albums are Kind of Blue released in 1959 and Sketches of Spain released in 1960. He also created his own unique style of jazz fusion mixed with elements of R&B, funk, and some of his own classical influences, making him a pioneer in the genre of jazz fusion. His long career and immense showmanship earned him five Grammy awards, additional honors including a Kennedy Center lifetime achievement award, and numerous accolades from fellow musicians. His near-six-decade career left an unforgettable mark on the world of jazz and will be remembered and celebrated forever.
