Music reviews of At Carnegie Hall
Music Review: The Dave Brubeck Quartet In Full Force
Rating: 5 Stars
This concert captures the Dave Brubeck Quartet at their best. The whole group was nervous before getting on the stage, but the energy on this album is unstoppable from "St. Louis Blues" till "Take Five".It's hard to pick highlights because the whole concert is awesome. "St. Louis Blues" gets the concert off the ground and then some. Brubeck's solo here is my favorite piano solo Brubeck did, building an interesting melodic idea until it explodes into a thundering climax, with Brubeck's heavy block-chords, and he stops when the intensity level is at its highest, paving the way for an awesome Joe Morello drum solo. And the concert is underway.
Another standout is Brubeck's treatment of "Pennies From Heaven", the melody heavily chorded. Also, one of Desmond's greatest solos is here, his creativity clearly ignited. Brubeck's percussive solo is also very impressive.
But, I think the second half of the concert is better, featuring songs from Time Out and Time Further Out. Every performance here is awesome, but the one that stands out the most is "Castilian Drums", featuring a lengthy but REMARKABLE drum solo from Joe Morello, one of the best drummers in jazz. It is a series of climaxes that brings the audience to a roar.
I would also say the Quartet playing "Blue Rondo" is awesome here. This performance is better than on the album Time Out, where it was first recorded. It is spend up considerably, but it works out so it builds up energy released when the guys solo during the blues section.
And, of course, the Quartet could not go home that night until they played "Take Five", and the audience immediately applauds when Brubeck plays the familiar vamp. There is also a piano solo by Brubeck, which was not done on the original version.
I would definitely recommend this to jazz fans in general, but especially Dave Brubeck fans. The Quartet is unstoppable on this CD, and they expand songs they've recorded to the point where some of the performances here are better than the studio versions. Don't miss out on this one!
