RIP Dave Brubeck
Dec. 5th, 2012 09:30 pmOne of the greats. This is more his than Take Five, which is Desmond's, though Desmond's solo in this is so fuckin' cool. But then again, so is some of Dave's playing through this. Such a sense of space...and even the almost 'stride' patterns work: though it must be admitted that Brubeck is better at the more formal aspects of the piece.
I couldn't find an embeddable (if that's the word I'm grasping for) version of It's a Raggy Waltz, so here's a link. Listen to it.
