Amazing how the quartet came along almost fully formed and developed - a telepathic communication between the players. They didn't have to evolve a style it was all there from the start. I saw and heard them "live" three times and it was a thrill I'll never forget.

I can't stop watching this. I'm not a jazz connaiseur but I appreciate good music from all genres. This is outstanding. Every part -- bass, drums, sax, and piano -- is so meticulous, refined, melodic, tasteful, and technically precise. Melodic yet dissonant. I've heard a few renditions of this piece and they're all great, but in this one the stars are aligned. Brubeck's chaotic breakdown midsolo is so jarring but beautiful. And amidst the chaos you still hear the faint glimmer of the pretty main line. Joe's drumming is so tasteful, expressive, and humble despite being incredibly technically advanced. This performance is my favorite of Paul's solos over this tune. Each note is so perfectly placed that it sounds like something written and honed over years. And it's hard to pinpoint, but there is a sadness to Eugene's bass playing which contrasts with the upbeat rhythm, which makes his otherwise repetitive bassline so poignant. It's actually my favorite part of the piece. So grateful that such a high quality recording was captured of this beautiful performance.

i remember my dad has some records from Brubeck in the 70, S i was never intrested, and on this moment i listen "40 years" i think for 150 time in one year, and gonna buy records to for the same reason you discribe ............its a magic track in every way. There is also a another version a little change in use from instruments ....... kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXuop6aum7ijn6M kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJ3Pqpyfg6igp7M

For guys who looked like accountants, they really kicked it. Awesome video of Brubeck's solo.

Desmond's lick @2:21 is just out of this world

Thanks KZbin for sharing such sublime music.

That tune is way older than I thought.

[@martins8761]

A very special song

[@danders3]

An amazing composition rendered indelibly by the classic Dave Brubeck Quartet lineup. It taps a deep vein of selfless spirituality: I find myself revisiting Dave Brubeck's multiple recordings of this song frequently during Lent. Here, Paul Desmond's solo is gorgeously moving, and Dave's delicate-to-startling improvisations conjure a remarkable intimacy even in this auditorium setting. Bravo!

[@timsather2945]

Yeah. That too. Plus they're all buzzed
