Brubeck's Big Birthday

A different view of Dave Brubeck coming up to his birthday together with Dizzy Gillespie, Joe Henderson and the Walsall Jazz Orchestra.

Looking forward to Dave Brubeck's birthday coming up on 6 December there's a duet with Dave and Paul Desmond.

Plus some Louis Jordan paired with Bing Crosby and John Burnett from Stoke who leads an orchestra and is a radio presenter - in Chicago.

Add the Mastersounds and Georgie Fame for a Canadian listener plus enough to give us two hours of superb jazz.
