简介: Dave Brubeck (born December 6,1920), jazz pianist, composer, and living legend, celebrates his 90th anniversary in 2010. To honour this occasion, Legacy is releasing the 2-CD, 21 track compilation Legacy Of A Legend with songs hand-picked by Brubeck himself. It spans his tenure with Columbia Records from 1954 through 1970 and includes selections from 17 albums. Brubeck’s recording career spans eight decades, and he has produced some of the most recognizable music in popular culture. His 1959 masterpiece, Time Out, was the first jazz album to sell over one million copies, and included the hits “Take Five” (now in the Grammy Hall of Fame) and “Blue Rondo a la Turk,” which played on jukeboxes around the world. Brubeck has consistently proven that pure, undiluted jazz and great commercial popularity can go together.
