The Essential Dave Brubeck Vinyl Record

Dave Brubeck was a jazz pianist and composer, responsible for some of the most iconic songs in jazz history, including 'Take 5' and 'The Duke.' This collection includes all of Brubeck's greatest hits, and showcases his idiosyncratic use of polyrhythms and odd time signatures. The effect? Essential jazz tunes that are as easy on the ears as they are nourishing to the brain.
