Three Classic Albums Plus: Dave Digs Disney ; Southern Scene ; In Europe (2010)

3½ Brubeck-album op 2 CD's (tussen haakjes quotes van allmusic.com): "Dave Digs Disney" uit 1957 (Inspired by a trip to Disneyland, Brubeck recorded 8 songs taken from 4 Disney movies (Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, Snow White and Cinderella), including such melodies as "Give a Little Whistle," "Heigh Ho," "When You Wish Upon a Star" and "Someday My Prince Will Come." The result is pleasant.); "Southern Scene" uit 1960 ("an album of songs associated with the South (as a follow-up to Gone with the Wind). The eight standards range from "Oh Susanna" and "Little Rock Getaway" to "Darktown Strutters Ball" and "Darling Nellie Gray"; in addition two originals in the style."); "In Europe" uit 1958 ("Excerpted from concerts recorded in Europe in 1958, the quartet is in top form, while Brubeck is hardly the heavy-handed pianist that many early critics claimed him to be on these rewarding performances. Alto saxophonist Paul Desmond is prominent throughout.") Verder is kant 2 van "Jazz Impressions USA" (1957) present.
