Newport 1958

Brand new sealed rerelease of the original album made in the EU.

Newport 1958 is a live album by pianist Dave Brubeck and his quartet recorded at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival in Rhode Island. Several of the tracks were later re-recorded in New York City due to sound problems with the live Newport recordings.^[3][4]

Ken Dryden reviewed the album for Allmusic and wrote that "The inspired choice of "Jump for Joy" makes for some of the most magical moments, while "Perdido" provides an extended workout for Desmond and Brubeck. ...Brubeck's "The Duke," an elegant tribute to Ellington that showcases Desmond's lyrical alto and the exciting finale of "C Jam Blues" (the latter spotlighting Morello are also highlights".^[4]
