Great performances
This DVD catches the classic Dave Brubeck Quartet (Brubeck, Paul Desmond, Eugene Wright and Joe Morello) in action in glorious black and white during the height of their popularity, recorded Belgium and Germany in 1964 and 1966 respectively. In Brubeck�s own words it is the best footage of the Quartet he�s ever seen. For once this no hype. It is marvellous and any Brubeck fan must have this. There are ten tracks with �Take Five� and �Koto Song� recorded at both concerts. The versions are quite different in each concert and also quite different from the familiar versions on disc. This presentation which includes a beautiful and informative booklet makes this an absolute treasure.
