Kenny Drew and His Progressive Piano (also released as The Modernity of Kenny Drew) is a 12" LP record album by American jazz pianist Kenny Drew.

The AllMusic review states: "[T]his disc is well worth acquiring for bop fans." The Billboard reviewer wrote that Drew "shows off some bright, modern stylings on a group of standards that should please cool collectors." - Wikipedia

Time In is a 1966 studio album by Dave Brubeck, the last of Brubeck's 'Time' series.

The Absolute Sound's Jeff Wilson wrote: "This 1965 release ended the Dave Brubeck Quartet’s series of time-themed albums, the most famous being 1959’s Time Out, which contained the ever-popular 'Take Five'. Time In was also one of the final records by a much-loved quartet that included Paul Desmond on alto saxophone. With more than two dozen albums behind them by the time this album was recorded, was the foursome a spent force? Definitely not—and, in fact, one listen to Time In will dispel any notions of the quartet as 'polite jazz'. On the ironically-titled opening track, 'Lost Waltz' [sic], the group swings with an urgency that reaches its peak during Brubeck’s vigorous solo... - Wikipedia

Dave Brubeck in Berlin is a 1965 live album by Dave Brubeck recorded at the Berliner Philharmonie in Berlin. The album was only released on LP in Germany, after having been recorded for radio broadcast by WDR Cologne.

The album was reviewed by Ken Dryden at Allmusic who wrote that "[Paul] Desmond is witty as usual in "St. Louis Blues," though Brubeck adds an amusing Charlie Parker lick in his solo and bassist Eugene Wright also shines." Dryden wrote that Brubeck's "economical solo" on "Koto Song" "...contrasts with his supposed reputation for heavy-handed playing. The group's breezy rendition of "Take the 'A' Train" is followed by the inevitable "Take Five"." - Wikipedia

Dave Brubeck Quartet, 1960 Essen Grugahalle, 2010 on Jazzline

Brubeck with Paul Desmond, Gene Wright, and Joe Morello, recorded live in Essen Germany (at the Grugahalle) in 1960.

Jazzline is a German label, and has a series of “WDR Original Masters” recorded by the Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR) which is basically West German NPR/PBS – a public service radio and TV broadcaster.

These are great professional recordings, remastered at WDR for release on 180g vinyl. Oddly on this one track B2 is labelled “Unkown Song’ but is clearly “These Foolish Things.”

Det här är så förbannat snyggt, både visuellt och musikaliskt.
When released as a single it became the biggest-selling jazz single ever. #Music #Jazz #DaveBrubeck #PaulDesmond #GeneWright #JoeMorello"
