Dave Brubeck at Newport


Had an opportunity to see Dave Brubeck at the Newport Jazz Festival yesterday. It was just amazing. An almost 90 year old guy on a hot day. He only stayed on stage for about 25 minutes but he was just terrific - and he was enthusiastically embraced by the crowd (an understatement). I have many of his records and have enjoyed them for years but had never heard him live. An experience to remember. Anyone else there?

I was not at the Newport Jazz Festival but I have seen him the last few years at the Detroit Jazz Festival and I agree he is very very good.

Someone who has mastered his art.

A real treat and amazing that he can still be so good.

BRAVO Dave Brubeck!
