Our Take

Ding dong, daddy-o! The Dave Brubeck Quartet’s “Brubeck’s Best” album is a swingin’ sensation that’s guaranteed to make you tap your toes and snap your fingers. Featuring classics like “Take 5”, “Unsquare Dance”, “Blue Rondo a la Turk”, and even a jazzy twist on “Camptown Races”, this collection is the cat’s pyjamas.

From the moment the groovy piano kicks in on “Take 5”, you know you’re in for a wild ride. Brubeck’s piano skills are nothing short of legendary, effortlessly blending complex rhythms and melodies with that signature cool-as-a-cucumber style. The quartet’s chemistry is off the charts, with each member bringing their own unique flair to the table, creating a sound that is both timeless and forward-thinking.

But it’s not all smooth sailing on “Brubeck’s Best”. Tracks like “Unsquare Dance” and “Blue Rondo a la Turk” show the quartet pushing the boundaries of traditional jazz, exploring complex rhythms and innovative structures that will leave you scratching your head in the best possible way.

So pour yourself a martini, kick back, and let the Dave Brubeck Quartet take you on a musical journey like no other. “Brubeck’s Best” is a must-have for any jazz aficionado, a true gem in the crown of the music world. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
