Product DescriptionA 2-disc salute to one of jazz's all-time greatest pianists, this is a comprehensive, definitive portrait of one of music's all-time greatest, and most enduring, artists; American piano legend Dave Brubeck. This collection features extended liner notes by Russell Gloyd, who served as Brubeck's manager, producer and conductor for decades.
Disc 1 chronicles the Fantasy Records years, from the 1940s to the early `50s, when Brubeck was still learning, absorbing, experimenting and recording mostly standards and other jazz repertoire - already proving himself to be a top-tier musician and bandleader
Disc 2 follows the path of the jazz legend from the `80s through the `00s, performing many of his own compositions, still exploring and still creating vibrant music.
