 In mid-1958, Bill Evans replaced Garland on piano and Jimmy Cobb replaced Jones on drums, but Evans only lasted about six months, in turn replaced by Wynton Kelly as 1958 turned into 1959.This group backing Davis, Coltrane, and Adderley, with Evans returning for the recording sessions, recorded "Kind of Blue", considered "one of the most important, influential and popular albums in jazz".Adderley left the band in September 1959 to pursue his own career, returning the line-up to a quintet.
