I was exposed to Brubeck’s music in my youth. My father had a great collection of contemporary jazz artists from the 40s, 50s and 60s. Of course the Dave Brubeck Quartet’s Time Out was one in the collection and of course Take Five was the most famous of the group’s songs. To this day it still sounds great. RIP Dave – you join Paul and Joe to play on for eternity. Eugene is still with us.
