Dave Brubeck and his jazz comrades hit the stage like an absolute "Blue Rondo à la Turk" hurricane in this lively live recording from Indiana in 1958. The quartet, with the incomparable Paul Desmond on saxophone, deliver spellbinding solos and tight grooves that make you feel like you're right there in the front row, sipping on a martini and nodding your head in time.

The chemistry between Brubeck and Desmond is undeniable, with their playful interplay and musical banter shining throughout the set. Tracks like "Take Five" and "Pennies from Heaven" showcase their virtuosity and innovation, while the bonus tracks provide a delightful surprise for fans old and new.

The energy on this recording is infectious, with each member of the quartet bringing their A-game to the table. Joe Morello's drum solos are a highlight, showcasing his technical prowess and creative spark. Eugene Wright's bass lines provide a solid foundation for the group's improvisations, grounding the sound and keeping the audience on their toes.

Overall, this album is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado or music lover looking to expand their horizons.
