A good introduction to Brubeck

For a collector knowing just Time Out and owning just Jazz Goes to College, this collection serves as a great introduction to the late Dave Brubeck. Packing to capacity might not be the hipster solution, but for the casual music lover there is an incredible amount to listen an enjoy. There is certainly much beyond Time Out and Jazz Goes to College; one only has to listen to the inspired improvisation in How High the Moon, first with clarinet by the inimitable Paul Desmond, then by Dave himself. One also can learn by listening that Brubeck certainly had learnt his counterpoint. Certainly recommended.

My review can also be read at Amazon by clicking the headline of this blog post.
