Take the A Train- Dave Brubeck in Italy 1959

The Dave Brubeck Quartet in concert at the Univerity of Rome in 1959. In Take the A Train we hear a brilliant set of drumbreaks by famous drummer Joe Morello.
Dave Brubeck born in 1920 is one of the most well-known jazz pianists of all time. The classic Dave Brubeck Quartet featuring Paul Desmond's liquid alto saxophone lasted for 17 years, during which time they produced the first ever million-selling jazz tune (Take Five), toured the world many times, and introduced enormous numbers of people to the jazz sound.
The two other members of the quartet were Eugene Wright on bass and Joe Morello on drums.
