My Favorites» Paul Desmond's improvisation on "Besame Mucho"

This "Besame Mucho" performance is from the 1998 "Bravo! Brubeck! (Columbia)" album of Dave Brubeck. Recorded live in Mexico, 1967; Dave Brubeck (piano) with Paul Desmond (alto saxophone), Eugene Wright (bass), Joe Morello (drums), Salvador "Rabito" Agüeros (bongos & conga drum), and Benjamin "Chamin" Correa (guitar).

For me, Paul Desmond's solo here is like a poem which caresses the soul.
