During 1949-1951 pianist Dave Brubeck led a San Francisco-based trio with bassist Ron Crotty and Cal Tjader doubling on drums and vibes. This CD has all 24 of this group’s recordings, interpretations of standards that are full of surprising moments. Even at this early stage, Brubeck had his own style and sounds nothing at all like Bud Powell, the dominant influence of the era (Scott Yanow/AllMusic).

Personnel:

Dave Brubeck – piano

Ron Crotty – bass

Cal Tjader – drums, vibraphone
