This 1958 set by the Dave Brubeck Quartet was recorded live at the Newport Jazz Festival in Rhode Island, July 3, 1958. It served as a tribute to Duke Ellington, with each band playing a set primarily drawn from Ellingtons repertoire. 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. Liberian Suite Dance No. 3 is actually one movement of Ellingtons Liberian Suite, which was premiered in late 1947. Brubecks The Duke, an elegant tribute to Ellington that showcases Desmonds lyrical alto and the exciting finale of C Jam Blues (the latter spotlighting Morello are also highlights).
