The Dave Brubeck Quartet – Jazz At Oberlin (Vinyl LP, 2023, Craft Recordings / Fantasy CR00612, Original Jazz Classics, 180g Mono)

Why This Record Matters
Jazz At Oberlin documents the Dave Brubeck Quartet’s March 2, 1953 performance at Finney Chapel at Oberlin College, with Brubeck joined by Paul Desmond, Ron Crotty, and Lloyd Davis. The performance became an important early live recording in the quartet’s catalog and features extended interpretations of standards including “How High The Moon,” “Perdido,” and “Stardust.” The album was originally released by Fantasy in 1953.

Collector Note

The supplied deadwax carries the MCL@CA inscription associated with Matthew Lutthans despite the obi’s Kevin Gray mastering credit.
