Remembering drummer Joe Morello

Remembering Dave Brubeck's most influential drummer, Joe Morello, who died last week.

A sample of the late Joe Morello's drum technique with the Dave Brubeck Quartet at the height of its popularity.

A great deal of Louis Prima has been issued on CD together with the voice of Keely Smith. Also there's some chat with Keely from just a few years ago.

There's a Charlie Parker composition from french-horn player Jim Rattigan and a track from singer Jeanne Gies who'll be visiting the UK in April.
