I am looking for the Japanese Bandstand label CD TKCB-70590, titled "Dave Brubeck- Take The A Train". Amazon lists "The Greatest Hits Dave Brubeck. The Cool Jazz Master" with 8 songs available on MP3, by the Producciones AR label. The 8 songs are the same ones as on the TKCB-70590 Bandstand CD. Is this MP3 set of songs the same as on the Bandstand CD?

What are the details of the session? When? (possibly 1964 or 65), where, anything else? As far as I can tell this session does not show up on any Brubeck discographies. Why not?

Songs are:

1. Take The "A" Train

2. Mexican Folk Song

3. Three To Get Ready

4. Forty Days

5. Summer Song

6. Someday My Prince Will Come

7. One Moment

8. Joe's Blues

Players are Dave, Paul Desmond, Gene Wright and Joe Morello.

Is it possible that the 8 songs are already included in another CD or LP? If so, on which one?

According to this page, looks as if they were on a Jazz Hour cd:

Jazz Hour = another red flag. The picture that's taking shape here is troubling. On the one hand, it could be an unauthorized recording, and/or a low-quality recording that has been shopped around by the fly by night, bottom-feeding labels of the world. In addition to that, the chances are fairly good that the information being presented about the material could very well be incorrect. It could even be a compilation of recordings from different performances from who knows when/where. I've been down that road with various CD "discoveries". Anyway, perhaps there's a hardcore Brubeck enthusiast around here who can help sort this one out.
