The
success of the Dave Brubeck Quartet during the 1950s and '60s was astonishing.
The history of modern jazz has not witnessed many phenomenon like it;
indeed when Take Five took flight in 1960, Brubeck's quartet became
one of the few jazz ensembles of any style to have an international, multi-million
selling 'pop' hit single. These 52 tracks spanning 1948-1952 trace Brubeck
developing his polyrhythmic and polytonal style with complex time signatures
from straight out of music college with an octet, then a more economically
practical trio, and finally with the quartet that would go on from immense
popularity on college campuses to international recognition. An authoritatively
annotated 16 page booklet essays this musical development and includes
a discography of the recordings.
