"Every so often you're lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time. And we were the lucky ones, those of us who were in Carnegie Hall on Friday night, February 22, 1963. That was the night the Dave Brubeck Quartet reached swinging heights few of us had ever heard it attain before. It began predictably as a good Brubeck concert, but nothing out of the ordinary. We were all there on this Washington's Birthday because we like to listen to Brubeck, and we were hearing pretty much what we had expected to hear. And so we were satisfied.

This was one of those nights when everything turned out right. During intermission I sat with Dave and Paul Desmond in their dressing room. They were very happy.

Some days later Dave, still exultant about what had happened at Carnegie Hall, remarked, 'The group had reached swinging heights like that before. What was lucky is that this concert was recorded!'"
