With Tjader on bongos, and a Garrard turning at 78 rpm, this is a good one.

"Playing in the South was eye-opening," Brubeck said. One of his most memorable experiences took place in 1958, when he appeared at a college in Georgia to perform. Minutes before show time, the dean told him the black bassist "can't go on." So Brubeck shot back: "Either the bassist performs or the show's off."

:thumbsup:
