I’m not much of a jazz fan – not at all in fact; my favorite quote about it is, “There are three types of jazz, ‘Cool,’ ‘Hot’ and ‘When does the tune start?'” from the ITV drama The Beiderbecke Affair, but even I had heard of Dave Brubeck – and he was most definitely ‘Cool.’

Take Five is the tune that most people associate with him so here, instead, is Blue Rondo à la Turk from the signature album, Time Out.

Dave Brubeck Quartet: Blue Rondo à la Turk

Dave Brubeck: 6/12/1920 – 5/12/2012. So it goes.
