Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" drove me insane almost


I have K2 CD of Miles Davis "Kind Of Blue", that I've had for a while, but never actually carefully listened to.
Now, I put it on and almost immediately on track one, I hear pretty audible noise/distortion, when the trumpet comes in. Forward to track 4- same kind of noise. Sounds like a blown tweeter or a bad tube.
I actually had the same kind of experience when the output stage tubes in my Modwright Denon went bad.
So naturally, I'm going on a wild goose chase- switching ICs left to right, switching output tubes in my CD, preamp.
Swapped my Lamm monoblocks left to right- no change, noise is still there.
After ruling out CD, preamp and power amps, the only possible outcome is the blown tweeters (highly unlikely).
Three days later I decide to rule out the most unlikely cause.
I put the CD in the whole different system- new CD player, amp and speakers- and of course, the noise is still there.
All this time, I've been chasing system problem, it has been faulty recording!!!
Here is my questions- I'm probably the only one here, who hasn't heard "Kind Of Blue" in critical listening session.
It's been around for decades and heard by millions of people, likely by almost every member of this forum.
So you guys always knew this was a technically compromised recording with some obvious noises overlaying the music (it actually sounds like a combination of overdriven tubes and a vinyl surface noise, crackling)?
Has anyone not heard it? Has anyone been sent on a wild goose chase by it, like I had?

The world is full of noise. I go to a chamber music concert and have to focus my attention beyond all sorts of noise emanating from the audience. I'm learning to live with it.
Not that I like it, mind you.
I realize this is an old thread but I just got this album on cd and about flipped out of my chair when I thought I had blown a speaker. change to new system same sound.  Google search took me to this thread on trusty ole audiogon and.........    I see I join the crowd.   At least its not my sytem.  Its to bad I was looking forward to this album.   mine is a cd with a Columbia recording label.  
Folks should realize once and for all that we buy this album not for its sound quality, but its music. It's silly to complain about its recording weaknesses. Or go buy a Diana Krall album.

What's wrong with Diana Krall?

Anyway, is the same problem on the actual album? or is it only on the CD?

enjoy
