   It's hard to summarize the highlights of a career as long and prolific
   as Dave Brubeck's in a two-CD compilation. If you're going to settle 
   for that, however, The Essential Dave Brubeck is a good job, spanning 
   1949 to 2002, with 76 minutes of music on each disc. Although a few of
   these tracks were drawn from his early Fantasy recordings and his 
   later Concord/MusicMasters/Telarc discs, the overwhelming bulk of them 
   come from his days at Columbia from the mid-'50s through the late 
   '60s. "Take Five" is here, of course, as are some of his better- known 
   recordings, like "Blue Rondo a La Turk," "Take the 'A' Train" (a live 
   1954 performance), "Audrey," and "Some Day My Prince Will Come" (from 
   the Dave Digs Disney album). Overall it spotlights the pianist in a 
   variety of settings - live, solo piano ("In Your Sweet Way" and "Weep 
   No More," from Brubeck Plays Brubeck); interpreting West Side Story; 
   bopping, balladeering, bossa nova, with strings; or backing vocalists 
   Louis Armstrong, Carmen McRae, Jimmy Rushing, and Tony Bennett. In 
   fact, no less than a couple dozen albums are sampled over the course 
   of the 31 discs, making this an admirably wide-ranging sampler of 
   Brubeck's work, focusing on his earlier and most important efforts.
