  1. The Dave Brubeck Quartet - February 28, 1958 - Niedersachsenhalle - Hannover

    This is from before Time Out, but the same quartet, on their first outings. Really good pressing and sound quality, and not something I'd ever seen before.

    Features Dave Brubeck (piano), Paul Desmond (alto), Gene Wright (bass), and Joe Morello (drums).

    A bit surprised to find this available at Amazon - amzn.to/4mSAXOw - on both LP and CD.

  3. "Take Five" is a #jazzStandard composed by #PaulDesmond and originally recorded in 1959 by the #DaveBrubeckQuartet for their album #TimeOut. Written in #quintupleTime (54), the composition is built around a distinctive blues-scale #melody in E♭ minor and a recurring two-#chord #vamp. It became the third track on Time Out, which was released by #ColumbiaRecords later that year.

  15. The Paul Desmond Album That Was CTI and Isn’t

    With the Grammys coming up, I thought it a good time to take a first look at Paul Desmond's career and his association with CTI Records, along with a discussion about his albums and Grammy nominations. I also apparently have some work to do on Wikipedia inaccuracies but mostly this is a look at Desmond's non-CTI A&M recording an
