Release 2317383 Dave Digs Disney labels show: ® "COLUMBIA" LP (in a circle). the Columbia "eye" MARCAS REG. MADE IN . Track A1 & B1: From Walt Disney's "Alice In Wonderland" Track A2: From Walt Disney's "Pinocccio" Track A3 & B2, B3: From Walt Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". As much as I ‘dig’ Dave Brubeck, I’ve been scratching my head over this one for nearly 60 years now, wondering what in the world Dave was thinking, if he was thinking at all, or was even aware of who Walt Disney was. Brubeck was a jazzman, and hopefully had a jazzman’s heart, along with a jazzman’s and artist’s sensibilities, those being to buck the system, to question authority, to have an innate ability to see a larger picture. In this case, Walt Disney was both racist and anti-Semitic (and I believe that Mr. Brubeck was a Jew)

Inspired by a trip with his family to Disneyland, Dave Brubeck recorded eight songs taken from four Disney movies (Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, Snow White, and Cinderella), including such melodies as "Give a Little Whistle," "Heigh Ho," "When You Wish Upon a Star," and "Someday My Prince Will Come.

3)The Dave Brubeck Quartet was a group that died a little every time they entered a recording studio. It's common knowledge that the quartet was at their best live, but here is a studio recording by the group with that "live feel. Paul Desmond, in particular, is in superb form. Heck, they all are. The quartet is relaxed yet impassioned at the same time. Also, I must mention that the two unreleased bonus tracks ("Very Good Advice" and "So This is Love") are excellent, and the latter is one of the best, and most firey, tracks in entire album. Dave Brubeck is phenomenal - always has been. Dave Digs Disney - I dig it!! It's fabulous and another addition to my Dave Brubeck collection.
