"I had never heard Dave Brubeck before, but I used to find this CD in shops that sold used ones. I had already bought some CDs of Jazz Hour. I rent a VHS about Dave and his kids, watched it in the weekend and loved it. So, monday morning I ran to my shop of used CDs madly and looked for it. Bought it and when I came back home at night, ran to the CD player. This one DOESN'T HAVE Take Five, but has wonderful gems like Ellington's Take the A Train, absolutely personal, Mexican Folk Songs, Three to Get Ready, Forty Days and Summer Song, my favourite ones. Forty Days reminds me a ride on a horse, that start peacefully and grows up in intensity and in speed. I love songs like this! Summer Song is gentle, mellow...
A marvelous CD!"
