Dave Brubeck Quartet - Blue Rondo a la Turk

[@davidlongoria]

these guys could do no wrong. I don't hear anything but masterful playing. This music and these musicians contributed moments in time that shaped jazz music forever. All my thumbs are up.

[@CharleyHolland]

A nice touch: sticking the mirror on the piano, don't you think?

[@willyreyes5410]

[@kingofalldoughboys]

One the greatest jazz compositions of all time!

[@touaregkc]

It is great to see the young Paul Desmond improvising with full concentration. He is my Idol.

[@1981TURBOTRANSAM1]

I Just LOVE this piece of music,Ive met Joe Morello and recieved a 2 hour intensive drum lesson from him,Treendous Guy and Musician........Great Clip!!!

[@clarinetdonn]

Joe Morello is the bomb!

[@Isaiah-Hughes]

Really!?

[@AbuFab]

This is truly a masterpiece. That change of rhythm and multiple transitions is mind blowing, and that was over 50 years ago. Love it ❤

[@rubenhdezdiaz]

They’re so tight rhythmically and melodically, beautiful…I honestly checked the speed on my KZbin player thinking somehow I had it faster, but it was on normal!!! They played it so much faster than the album, the bebop feel in Brubeck’s solo feels awesome!

[@lgoodwinno2]

I absolutely LOVE this song. My jazz band is playing it this year and I am SOOO excited :)

[@cricketbat09]

Jazz isn't usually my scene, but this is on another level.

[@lacroixphilippe5433]

?!

[@pizzn8]

Finally, i get to see blue rondo played. Thank you so much for uploading this!

[@fionatsang9353]

The Brubeck Quartet in my country!!! Wish I could go back in a time machine to be in that studio! Love the little interaction between Gene and Joe at 4:39, looking at each other and anticipating what Dave an Paul will do XD

[@dawgyv72]

Struggling ?!!?!?! The Desmond is effortless in anything he ever played... if the comment was towards the expressions he made , The man had a sometimes stupendous lung capacity for the amount of smokes he consumed ...

[@tocov]

My favorite piece of his. RIP, man

[@gfcvisionsgrowinginfriends9312]

My father loved to relax with the amazing album "Take Five," and this composition along w/the classic title track are two of the greatest jazz performances ever recorded. God blessed the world in a big way when these men playd their music. Thanks for this masterpiece. Peace, G-man

[@x.y.8581]

Album title was actually "Time Out" - "Take Five" was third tune/side one.

[@gfcvisionsgrowinginfriends9312]

@@x.y.8581 Thanks for the clarification. The album is one of my favourites. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@SmeGalvao]

What a gem! I never thought I'd see it played. Thank you so much for uploading this.

[@arizonawvkid]

Love love love this

[@barryp9463]

This is a live slightly changed version and still sounds good

[@Vininn126]

I can't get this goddamn song out of my head

[@Cambodia69]

I think it would've been hilarious to see the bassist, Eugene Wright, put on a pair of the same styled glasses to see if anyone caught on to him. If the others accidentally caught a glimpse of it I'm sure they would've, at least, cracked a smile.

[@DmPmRr1959]

Life happens. Jazz helps. This CERTAINLY helps!👏👏👏

[@darthslobo]

Great video, thanks! The camera work was fantastic, and the performance was right on!

[@davidstaudohar8147]

I think when Dave wrote and played this piece we definitely had too much Kona coffee before our jam session and there was no jam on the toast we saved it for the party‼️. ♥️🎼🎼‼️

[@Eviltrav]

What kind of vandal would have sought to destroy this? Don't understand how people thought back in the day.

[@SteveEcksteinDouglasDrive]

SUBLIME SUBTONE BY PAUL DESMOND IS SOOOOOOOO KOOL> 1ST SAX PROF. TAUGHT THIS TO ME> LEARNED HOW TO " GROWL " ON MY OWN> STILL DO BOTH TODAY< IN MODERATION(JAW SURGERY)>(ARTHRITIS))

[@rotano]

masters all of them - brilliant artistry

[@brthdan]

Pure geniuses at work here! Today's artist couldn't even begin to dream up that kind of talent...especially live!!

[@butchgregoria7142]

ELP added their own twist to it. Keith Emerson loved playing around with such things.

[@fruitypebbles803]

I wish the bass player got a solo too!

[@JonHop1]

theres no drum solo either.. Its dave and Paul's song.. Plenty of other songs on the album focus on Eugene and Morello..

[@ibrahimkocaalioglu]

Best version of this song. ❤

[@geoffnelson4777]

Feb '62 taping (1 Apr telecast) of "The Dave Brubeck Craven Filter Special"

[@scarred123]

ah! so much faster live

[@WAST3D]

ENORME!

[@extraspace3842]

Incroyable et extraordinaire merci

[@luckyjinxer]

what a genius

[@serialartistry]

it's insane to me that a good 80% of the band is all just the same guy

[@Bigstrat2]

Brilliant. Timeless

[@54spiritedwill54]

Spectacular.

[@musicstewart9744]

Oh that Aussie TV had color when this was filmed.

[@paulcorgan]

@wasian666 yeah this is like double speed compared to the album haha, i learned it on piano and first tried to play along with this version...yeah friken right haha super fast speed

[@csaracho2009]

paulcorgan same speed I guess: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmGaf6Wfa9Nmj5I

[@Eliozzzzzz]

wonderful ...

[@okihinukotog]

派手さはなくとも先駆者的な人達にはいつも感動する。

[@kaktusrouge]

The 9 dislikes come from those who couldn't make it to the TV studio I guess

[@brandoncallaway2619]

Makes me think of a '63 Continental cruising down Sunset.

[@grahamistearingup]

Thank you so much for posting this footage, I think this is the only footage of brubeck playing this live on youtube

[@arfansthename]

they speed

[@rickkilgore1147]

This was fantastic.I saw some negative comments a few times,probably idiots who listen to Rapp.

[@qdHazen]

RIP Dave.

[@tieukhavu8832]

I thought it's an intro of Mozarts piece

[@puszkacoli470]

Wow this video is so old

[@splitsock]

they play a bit too fast in my opinion, but desmond's solo is wicket. even compared to his other performances.

[@glennwisniewski9536]

they probably had a time limit since this was broadcast on TV

[@scowell]

I did notice it was rushed... the Carnegie Live is canon to me I guess.

[@donnaluch4344]

That’s jazz!!

[@deshinador]

Joe Morello, I guess...

[@JessJurkovic]

Yow. Thanks again for posting this.

[@evifnoskcaj]

That tempo change at about 4:20!!!!!

[@WendellDrums]

Isso sim é Jazz de qualidade.

[@thousasimos]

Nice!good jazz

[@nicomaslo]

Nos queda su música. En paz descanse.

[@aliciabuenaventura5024]

genios!!

[@skifiles]

joe morello

[@Bhatt_Hole]

You know how sometimes when you eat way too much cheese in one sitting and you end up getting diarrhea afterward? And how it ruins your entire day? This song is like that. But, much better.

[@lbduk]

R.I.P.

[@miniricc]

is this a boss theme from some Final Fantasy

[@WendellDrums]

Muito bom.

[@uhgvitybvouv]

hahah well pointed

[@Mrfluffywhiterabbit]

Is it just me....or do they all look alike. Besides the bass. Talented musicians though. Love this song.

[@GH-oi2jf]

It's you.

[@piehound]

Yay . . . "INSIDE STUFF. They're using vibes again. And Sonya ? Well she just travels with them." Quote courtesy of Rodney Dangerfield's NO RESPECT,

[@powellrashaan]

Nas brought me here.

[@なすくん-q1o]

What is the first man saying

[@oldhamegg]

A bunch of Jazz Nerds.

[@samueljbeane]

Who is the drummer?

[@glennwisniewski9536]

the great Joe Morello, of course

[@pyromohanzed]

what's a Craven Filter?

[@StLennyBruce]

Great to see him play! The sax player is strugglin' a bit. I got this tune as 6:44, from the album. That's a killer.

[@xyphenius9942]

I don't Paul Desmond (the sax player) is struggling mate. If anything, the rhythm section and Mr. Brubeck are a little shaky in the b section. Very meaningful playing nonetheless.
