Editorial Reviews
4 Stars - Very Good - ...This ambitious package invites consideration of Brubeck's place in jazz cosmology....a good, solid survey of Brubeck....Brubeck's conception was brainy, but not highbrow; complex, but not intimidating, and always melodic. It enticed millions who might otherwise have closed their minds to jazz...
