Jazz at the College of the Pacific

2014 vinyl LP reissue. One of the many stellar sessions from the Dave Brubeck Quartet, famed jazz scribe Nat Hentoff wrote in DownBeat Magazine of Jazz at the College of the Pacific that it 'ranks with the Oberlin and Storyville sets as the best of Brubeck on record'. Featuring a lineup of drummer Joe Dodge, bassist Ron Crotty, and longtime Brubeck collaborator, altoist Paul Desmond, this set delivers the goods in a way that only a Brubeck combo can. Providing timeless interplay on six standards, Brubeck and Desmond trade solos that are absolutely brimming with creativity. A true classic in the Brubeck catalog, Jazz at the College of the Pacific is essential listening for all fans of Brubeck, Desmond, and classic jazz.
