5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Buy!, May 20, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: This Is Jazz 3 (Audio CD)

This is the first jazz CD that I have ever worn out (I know you cannot actually wear out a CD). A great CD for someone who wants to experience jazz for the first time. A must have.

Classically trained Dave Brubeck (he studied piano with Milhaud and Schoenberg) and his quartet perform two of their famous originals, as well as several standards on THIS IS JAZZ 3. These 1954 to '63 COLUMBIA recordings have never sounded better. Brubeck's penchant for unusual time signatures and extended improvs is apparent on all of these tracks. Liner notes include recording dates and personnel. Highly recommended for fans of the "cool," Third Stream and experimental jazz idioms.

Probably the single best Jazz CD I've ever gotten. The style of Jazz that you would expect to hear in a small Jazz club with four or five guys sitting on stage just grooving. Also a lighter style of Jazz, if you are a budding Jazz fan or just haven't understood the thrill behind it get this CD it will change your mind.
