Reviews
4 stars out of 5 - Both "Kathy's Waltz" and "Strange Meadow Lark" contain melodies and moods that keep one hearing new things time and again. - Mojo

4 stars out of 5 - "...Whilst other jazz innovators mapped out new harmonic and melodic realms, Brubeck and his band were forging time signatures anew, giving the music the wonky grace of a gazelle running the 200 metre hurdles." - DownBeat
