Songs known all over the world!Songs heard by everybody on this planet!
This is an extraordinary journey throughout the music with DaveBrubeck and his quartet..
Classics such as Take Five,Weep No More,Take The A Train,Summer Song and so on and so on..We remember Ella performing so much of his music.A great talent such as DaveBrubeck gave us a feeling of an astonishment from the life,a wish to create more,a wish to be more,perception of the beautiful..
It brings you back to the sound of the 60`s with it`s acoustic guitar,the grand piano,the live double bass and the drums` performance.
Strongly recommended compilation from and for all the fans of the unforgettable jazz music. ...
Advantages: Great introduction to Jazz Disadvantages: None
times when only jazz will do. This is ideal for sophisticated dinner parties or just a quiet evening in, or for those of you budding jazz enthusiasts out there, crank it up and enjoy the ride.
Overall a great introduction to jazz piano and alto saxophone and to the DaveBrubeck Quartet's work. I hope it gives you as much pleasure as it has given me. ...
Advantages: Full of entertaining shows... Disadvantages: ...full of repeats
Of course, it's the wonderful 'Dave'...the artist formerly known as UKTV G2. Not exactly the most exciting of sounding television channels, so they glamourised it...by called it 'Dave'...because everyone knows a Dave.
The concept of the channel is simply a station airing predominantly repeats of entertainment and comedy shows. It doesn't air 24-hours a day, instead it tends to broadcast until approximately 3am each night, and then restarts at 7am, with a bit of mind-boggling Teleshopping thrown in there for good measure.
But what does it show? Well during the day it plays repeats of entertainment shows such as Top Gear, Ray Mear's Extreme Survival, Trawlermen, Traffic Cops and Fifth Gear; all seemingly quite 'manly' shows aimed at blokes called 'Dave' presumably...

Album Notes
Personnel: Dave Brubeck (piano). Along with the rock band Pavement, jazz pianist Dave Brubeck is Stockton, California's most famous export. Since the 1950s, Brubeck has been the most famous and successful exponent of what is known as jazz's Cool School. Decades after his success with the hit single "Take Five," Brubeck is still making beautiful music--INDIAN SUMMER is one of his infrequent solo recitals. This disc has a fascinatingly melancholy tone throughout, from the sparse elegy "You'll Never Know" to the wistful "September Song" to the elegant, haunting, oddly modern-sounding title song that is the closer. This particular SUMMER is a perfect companion for evenings (or leisurely mornings) when one is taking those solitary walks down memory lane.
Album Reviews
Down Beat (p.65) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Brubeck, the master composer, has an informed point of view on each song, and develops his themes with elegance and rigor."
