How many times can I recall "Sunday Evening at the London Palladium" on tv as a young girl sitting there bored, until Dave Brubeck would appear, then there was no boredom. Thank you, Anna.
As others have mentioned already, this is actually from the album "1975: The Duets Brubeck & Desmond" It's only the two of them. Probably my favorite album cover :D
i have been looking for this cut for quite sometime. i have on vinyl though but seeing it posted here makes a whole lot of difference. Thank you very much for posting!
@MrRea112 Actually, this photo is the most famous quartet -that being -along with Dave on piano- Paul Desmond on alto sax, Joe Morello on drums, and Eugene Wright on bass -However, this cut is from Dave's wonderful 1954 release -"This Is Jazz Vol.3", which had the same line-up, with the exception of Norm Bates on bass...
Evans owned almost every tune he played. For any pianist with decent technique, inventive input is what makes the difference between merely great and stunningly superb. Maybe Beethoven was a better pianist than Evans, but we will never know.
Dave and Paul. Such as stellar combination. I grew up on the DBQ. Only Eugene Wright survives now. Rest in Peace, Dave, and thanks for the music.
Just to have these two giants playing in my front room......heaven and so very very gifted.
The gentle but inventive whimsicality of Paul Desmond is so uplifting. Dave is always the maestro. Great stuff here.

Really gorgeous and really sweet version of this classic. Fantastic stuff as expected.
RIP, Mr. Brubeck... you will be sorely missed here.

Sigo pensando que Brubeck es genial, sus composiciones, arreglos y manera de tocar, ....de mis grandes favoritos.

Favorite version of a favorite song
This was The Duets recording, made at Dave's home, a collectors item.
Gotta be my favorite track of all
Beautiful
beautiful
So nice!
masterpiece!
@Nisstyre56
Desmond is my hero also. No one ever has or ever will blow an alto like he did.
This sounds like something that might have been played on Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. I loved that show as a kid.
Time for some Brubeckian Jazz!
Bellissima
just search for the trailer, the song that used in it, is the main theme. or if you have the movie, it is in the first minutes of it.
It's not the same
Es la versión que más me gusta ....
Yeah :) so great :))
This would be Gene Wright (bass) and Joe Morello (drums) wouldn't it be? The original quartet. Beautiful!
Nice to meet you. I used this work as BGM in my video. For non-commercial purpose. Thank you.
👍
hey mine too!
ワンダーランドへ行ってみたい♪
死ぬ前に、ここに作成しようとしましょう
School of Jazz, thats it, like u Chick C.
The Main Theme
I'm not sure which song from the original Alice in Wonderland is used for this jazz... anyone?
It was the opening and closing credits of the film.
1:25
Brubeck is a bit too linear for this piece but Desmond saves the day. But everything kind of pales to Bill Evan's definitive version I/m/o.
Evans owns this tune
Evans owned almost every tune he played. For any pianist with decent technique, inventive input is what makes the difference between merely great and stunningly superb. Maybe Beethoven was a better pianist than Evans, but we will never know.
Brubeck and Desmond playing standards. Mmmmmm =]
