1	Time Out (1959) more music like this by The Dave Brubeck Quartet Dave Brubeck's defining masterpiece, Time Out is one of the most rhythmically innovative albums in jazz history, the first to consciously explore time signatures outside of the standard 4/4 beat or 3/4 waltz time. It was a risky move -- Brubeck's record company wasn't keen on releasing such an arty project, and many critics initially roasted him ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £6.19!
2	Dave Brubeck's Greatest Hits (1966) more music like this by Dave Brubeck While greatest-hits albums from jazz artists are sometimes dubious propositions, Dave Brubeck is the rare exception to the rule. Brubeck concentrated on the song as much as the performance, which is one of the reasons why he appealed to such a wide audience and it's also the reason why Greatest Hits is such an entertaining and effective sampler. ... see all copies from £3.75! new only from £8.92!
3	A Dave Brubeck Christmas (1996) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Dave Brubeck covers a host of favorite carols on this solo outing. His chime-like "Joy to the World" and striding "Winter Wonderland" are treasures. His festive opening version of "Jingle Bells" contrasts with the weary version signaling the end of an evening's festivities; anyone who has ever worked a holiday party will relate to it. His ... see all copies from £11.51! new only from £11.51!
4	The Essential Dave Brubeck (2003) more music like this by Dave Brubeck It's hard to summarize the highlights of a career as long and prolific as Dave Brubeck's in a two-CD compilation. If you're going to settle for that, however, The Essential Dave Brubeck is a good job, spanning 1949 to 2002, with 76 minutes of music on each disc. Although a few of these tracks were drawn from his early Fantasy recordings and his ... see all copies from £15.65! new only from £15.65!
5	Take 5 Quartet: A Jazz Hour With Dave Brubeck Quartet (1999) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Because this recording dates from the middle of Dave Brubeck's exclusive contract with Concord Jazz, it's obviously a bootleg, but both the recording quality and the performances make it a worthwhile investment. This 1982 concert actually predates clarinetist Bill Smith's first appearance on an official album as a full time member of the Brubeck ... see all copies from £6.09! new only from £10.58!
6	Jazz at Oberlin (1953) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Quartet Although a touch underrated, Jazz at Oberlin is one of the early Dave Brubeck classic recordings. The interplay between the pianist-leader and altoist Paul Desmond on "Perdido" borders on the miraculous, and their renditions of "The Way You Look Tonight," "How High the Moon" and "Stardust" are quite memorable. Brubeck's piano playing on "These ... see all copies from £3.03! new only from £8.40!
7	The Best of Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program was the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, which was augmented by no less than 22 ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £5.67!
8	Gone With the Wind (1959) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Quartet This dynamic quartet, strongly influential during the cool jazz period, performed as a group from 1951 to 1967. Since the 1930s, leader Dave Brubeck received high praise and critical acclaim for his role as bandleader and for his stirring arrangements. At the piano, Brubeck plays along with the accompaniment of Paul Desmond, another timeless jazz ... see all copies from £3.59!
9	Time Further Out (1961) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Unlike most sequels, Time Further Out is a worthy successor to Time Out. Among the numbers introduced on this impressive set are "It's a Raggy Waltz" and "Unsquare Dance" (the latter an ancestor of Don Ellis's "Pussy Wiggle Stomp"). The selections, which range in time signatures from 5/4 to 9/8, are handled with apparent ease (or at least not too ... see all copies from £5.37! new only from £8.30!
10	Jazz: Red, Hot and Cool (1954) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Recorded during three different stays at New York's Basin Street, Jazz: Red, Hot and Cool is making its first appearance in the U.S. on CD. It documents -- with the addition of two additional performances that were previously unissued -- the original Brubeck quartet in its final years. In 1956 Joe Morello would replace Joe Dodge, and in 1958 ... see all copies from £6.15! new only from £8.65!
11 view cover	Indian Summer (2007) more music like this by Dave Brubeck It's not uncommon for anyone to turn toward nostalgia as the years wear on, and at age 86, with nearly 60 years of recording behind him and nearly 50 since he shook up the jazz world with his landmark Time Out album, Dave Brubeck is certainly entitled to look back and take stock of his life. Indian Summer -- the phrase itself suggests an ... see all copies from £12.43! new only from £12.43!
12 view cover	Jazz Impressions of Japan (1964) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Thirteen years into their tenure, the Dave Brubeck Quartet was still able to mine the creative vein for new means of expression. Despite the hits and popularity on college campuses, or perhaps because of it, Brubeck, Paul Desmond, Eugene Wright, and Joe Morello composed a restless band with a distinctive sound. These eight tracks, all based on a ... see all copies from £3.42! new only from £4.86!
13 view cover	Happy Anniversary, Charlie Brown! (1987) more music like this by Various Artists The 40th anniversary of the Charlie Brown comic strip is celebrated on this 1987 CD by performances of songs used on the cartoon series (most of which were originally composed by Vince Guaraldi). A variety of artists participated in the project including David Benoit, B.B. King (singing "Joe Cool"), Dave Grusin, Chick Corea ("The Great Pumpkin ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £7.07!
14 view cover	Big Band Hit Parade (1988) more music like this by Various Artists This CD is a bit of an oddity but largely a success. A group of all-star jazzmen (trumpeter Doc Severinsen, trombonist Buddy Morrow, clarinetist Eddie Daniels, baritonist Gerry Mulligan, pianist Dave Brubeck, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Shaughnessy) along with the great singer Cab Calloway team up with Erich Kunzel's Cincinnati Pops Big Band ... see all copies from £3.41! new only from £7.80!
15 view cover	Young Lions & Old Tigers (1994) more music like this by Dave Brubeck To celebrate his 75th birthday, Dave Brubeck recorded one number apiece with quite a variety of top jazz stars, both young and old. Some of the performances (which alternate duets with quartets) work better than others (eight are recent Brubeck compositions) but all of the musicians display mutual respect, and it is obvious that the guests are all ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £6.12!
16 view cover	Jazz at the College of the Pacific (1953) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Quartet This CD brings back a near-classic (one of many from this period) by the Dave Brubeck Quartet. Drummer Joe Dodge had just joined the group and he joins with bassist Ron Crotty in laying down a solid and subtle foundation. However the real action takes place up front with pianist Dave Brubeck and altoist Paul Desmond. Their individual solos are ... see all copies from £5.30! new only from £7.39!
17 view cover	Live at the Berlin Philharmonie (1970) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Trio & Gerry Mulligan Out of the 13 selections included on this double CD, six were originally released just in Europe, two ("Out of Nowhere" and "Mexican Jumping Bean") were never out before and only five songs were on the American LP. Considering how inspired the Dave Brubeck Quartet sounds, it is surprising that the music has been so obscure for so long. Baritonist ... see all copies from £8.29! new only from £8.29!
18 view cover	Just You, Just Me (1994) more music like this by Dave Brubeck It had been nearly 40 years since Dave Brubeck's last solo piano recording when he recorded this relaxed set. Brubeck sounds typically creative yet often wistful on the seven standards, four originals, and a "Tribute to Stephen Foster." This is a fine addition to Brubeck's extensive yet consistently satisfying discography. Scott Yanow, All Music ... see all copies from £3.39! new only from £7.22!
19 view cover	Late Night Brubeck: Live from the Blue Note (1993) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Dave Brubeck teams up with Bobby Militello (heard here on alto, tenor and flute), bassist Jack Six and drummer Randy Jones for a set that emphasizes ballads and slower tempos. Militello brings back the spirit of Paul Desmond while Brubeck's own playing continues to be full of surprises. On "Theme for June" he breaks out into stride, a Duke ... see all copies from £3.38! new only from £8.44!
20 view cover	Dave Brubeck/Paul Desmond (1952) more music like this by Dave Brubeck with Paul Desmond This CD reissues two earlier Fantasy LPs titled Jazz at the Black Hawk and Jazz at Storyville. Pianist Dave Brubeck and altoist Paul Desmond are the two main constants while bassists Ron Crotty and Wyatt Ruther and drummers Lloyd Davis, Herb Barman and Joe Dodge are heard on some tracks. There are many high points to this interesting set including ... see all copies from £8.88! new only from £13.02!
21 view cover	Santa's Bag: An All-Star Jazz Christmas (1992) more music like this by Various Artists Santa's Bag: An All-Star Jazz Christmas finds Telarc's top artists contributing Christmas chestnuts and holiday tunes. The recordings were all made in the early '90s, and feature some of the great artists from the prime years of jazz doing their thing in the autumn of their careers -- their thing being light and easy jazz, perfect for relaxing and ... see all copies from £3.40! new only from £4.50!
22 view cover	Concord on a Summer Night (1982) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Quartet In 1982 pianist Dave Brubeck welcomed clarinetist Bill Smith (who he had played with back in his octet days in the late '40s) as a permanent member of his Quartet along with drummer Randy Jones and Chris Brubeck on electric bass and occasional bass trombone. This album features the new Quartet at the Concord Jazz Festival playing what would become ... see all copies from £2.52! new only from £8.99!
23 view cover	So What's New? (1998) more music like this by Dave Brubeck At 77, Dave Brubeck continued to pour forth new music at a clip that was extraordinary even for him. Whether any of it will last or stand up to the famous Brubeck numbers of the past, though, is something to ponder when you sample this quartet session. An all-Brubeck program of never-recorded new pieces (although the piece entitled "Marian ... see all copies from £4.61! new only from £5.26!
24 view cover	Plays and Plays and... (1957) more music like this by Dave Brubeck Dave Brubeck's second solo piano album differs from the first in that only two of the nine songs he performs are his originals. However Brubeck's versions of such standards as "Imagination," "Our Love Is Here to Stay" and "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To" sound quite fresh and contain more than their share of surprises. Fortunately the formerly ... see all copies from £4.70! new only from £5.87!
25 view cover	The Dave Brubeck Quartet at Carnegie Hall (1963) more music like this by Dave Brubeck For all those who have a big axe to grind with Brubeck, for all those who claim the band was only successful because they were predominantly white, or played pop-jazz, or catered to the exotica craze, or any of that, you are invited to have all of your preconceptions, tepid arguments, and false impressions hopelessly torn to shreds by the CD debut ... see all copies from £11.01! new only from £16.49!
