Dave Brubeck takes five...
 

minutes break. or actually more than that - may he rest in peace :(

One of the all time greats. RIP

When I was a little kid learning to play rock guitar, I heard Dave Brubeck's "Take 5" and felt that jazz music could really be cool too, and so began my lifelong love of jazz...



RIP Dave Brubeck

RIP Dave Brubeck

RIP Dave - i'm a sax player, was anyway until wasn't much to do with it after i finished school. Paul Desmond was an amazing alto sax player, nobody else had that breathy sound you hear on Take 5 and no teacher would encourage a sax student to emulate it, that's Desmond's tune, he wrote it, maybe improvised it.

Phil Woods was my favorite sax man.

Thanks for all you've given, Mr. Brubeck.

Rip

he was good.

clever thread title :)

A true legend, rip.

He was truly remarkable. Had a chance to meet him once when I worked in the record industry {early 80's}, and he was very classy, as well of course brilliantly talented!
RIP Mr. Brubeck!

RIP Mr. Brubeck.

I saw him a few times live. What an incredible treat!

One of the true all time greats.

91, we should all live such a life!

A true Monster of Jazz. R.I.P

i have done dozens of live jazz concerts as sound engineer - always the easiest people to work with because usually excellent musicians. opposed to rock bands :winkwink:

and since then i really enjoy jazz - especially when mixed with modern elements like acid jazz

Rip :( :( :(
