You might ask: why a tribute to Dave Brubeck on John Zorn's killer-pedigree, Japanaese Avant imprint? The answer is anyone's guess, since In His Own Sweet Way falls outside the scope of Zorn's Jewish-composer series on Tzadik (which includes the stellar two-CD Burt Bacharach homage). Listening to the collection's 14 tracks, the "why" is altogether irrelevant. Brubeck purists will cringe from the opening bars of Dave Slusser's electronics-laden "Blue Shadows in the Street" onward, except for Bill Frisell's poetic acoustic guitar take on "Summer Song," Medeski Martin & Wood's swinging "Tokyo Traffic," and cellist Erik Friedlander's lyric reading of "Winter Ballad." But anyone familiar with Brubeck's own searching music--especially the stuff of the 24 Classic Original Recordings, the Octet, and virtually all the strange rhythmic studies--will find this whole affair thrilling, if in a sometimes skewered way. The Ruins doing "Blue Rondo a la Turk" create a rockish juggernaut; Dave Douglas's collage of his own multi-instrumental playing on "Nomad" rings true to the tune's title; and Eyvind Kang's electronic, beat-rich "Calcutta Blues" is utterly poignant when the viola is steering the tune. Michael Blake's Slowpoke makes an elongated swamp thing out of "Sixth Sense," and Joey Baron does a fantastically melodic Joe Morello with bassist Tony Scherr on "Three to Get Ready." As anyone who knows Zorn (or any other musician on the CD) would expect, this tribute is all over the map. So was Brubeck in his heyday; it's all in the same spirit. --Andrew Bartlett

4 out of 5 stars A fine tribute........2004-05-16

Jazz compilation / Tribute albums have a tendency to fall into stylistic ruts more often than not. Tributes to past masters of the Jazz canon usually are very traditional in scope and some what sterile. But not this one. John Zorn's all star cast contributes 14 tunes, most of them lesser know Brubeck compositions (there is no "Take 5"). Their interpretations of these tunes are as varied as the artists themselves.

There are acoustic / free- interpretations of the material by pianist Anthony Coleman and MMW. Pianist Uri Caine pounds out a swaggering performance on "Far More Blues" and Sex Mob belts out a distinctive grinding dirge on "Jumpin". Pachora and David Krakauer dig into a middle-eastern music stream for their renditions. Solo contemplative pieces are rendered by guitarist Bill Frisell and cellist Erik Friedlander. Drummer Joey Baron and bassist Tony Scherr deliver a cool swinging track and Slowpoke eases out a smokey blues groove. Dave Slusser, Eyvind Kang and Dave Douglas contribute the most experimental tracks to the tribute, with Douglas' solo-overdubbed work resembling late period electric Miles Davis as filtered through Sun Ra and modally based eastern musics. The Ruins deliver what may be the standout track of the whole disc however. Their bass and drum prog-rock workout of "Blue Rondo A La Turk" is not to be missed. Worth the price alone.

3 out of 5 stars Young Jazz Guns' Dave Festival.......2000-06-14

This disc will be attractive for those interested in contemporary jazz players or fusion of jazz and international music or, of course, Dave Brubeck. I was attracted as this cd included the name Bill Frisell (He is my favorite and so is 'Summer Song' ) and Dave Douglas. The musics are nice when you sit on the corner of cafe in Paris or walking around maze of paths in Venice. Scene changes.

5 out of 5 stars Excelent voice, the start of another legend.......2005-04-03

The only short coming is there is not enough of Sheila Raye. She has one of those voices you could set back and lose time in. She is an example of the fruit not falling far from the tree. I can't wait til she does another CD.

          This is the way ,I think, Purcell should sound. No pomp and surcomstance but only great music.

          5 out of 5 stars ALL THE MUSIC YOU EVER NEED!!.......2003-05-23

          This boxed set is by far one of the best purchases I have ever made. As a Purcell freak, this hits every button I have. The cast of characters include the inequitable Robert King, New College Choir, Bowman, and a host of other venerable persons. Likewise the attention to period performance of these works makes it an essential addition to the library of any serious anglophile/Musicologist etc. Now if only the Britten Realizations of all Purcell's songs could be recorded alongside the originals! You will Love this set!
