Jazz Impression Of The U.S.A. - Dave Brubeck

 

Plain Song

Jazz Impression Of The U.S.A.
Dave Brubeck Quartet
Featuring Paul Desmond
Original compositions by Dave Burbeck
Columbia Records CL 984
1957

Alto Sax: Paul Desmond
Piano: Dave Brubeck
Bass: Norman Bates
Drums: Joe Morello

From Billboard - May 20, 1957: An extremely salable jazz package concerned with impressionistic Brubeckian sketches. Excellent soloing gives material's descriptive qualities real delineation. The drumming of recently acquired Joe Morello gives the group a rhythmic solidity, unity and tastefulness, it never has enjoyed before. Jazz dealers can safely order in quantity.
