Live From Vienna 1967 – Dave Brubeck Trio (Vinyl) (AE)

This is a vinyl LP pressing of Live From Vienna 1967 by the Dave Brubeck Trio. Recorded during a rare and electrifying performance in Vienna, this album features Dave Brubeck on piano, Joe Morello on drums, and Gene Wright on bass, after alto saxophonist Paul Desmond missed the flight. Despite being one man down, the trio delivers an unforgettable performance, with each member stepping up to explore new creative territories. Brubeck’s inventive piano work is on full display, from his playful polyrhythmic approach on “Swanee River” to his harmonic exploration in “La Paloma Azul.” The set includes energetic tracks like “St. Louis Blues” and “Someday My Prince Will Come,” culminating in a joyful encore of “Take the A Train.” This rare live recording captures the trio’s brilliance, offering listeners the feeling of being part of that remarkable night in Vienna.
