absolutely! amazing that he grooved so well with gene(he's the) wright man though there was competition for solos, and that joe's vision was quickly declining...that loss probably enhanced his hearing,rhythm and touch, however!

"Take Five" was my first intro to this group I heard at a friend's house in 1968. I've loved this group ever since and bought most of his Columbia recordings and some of his college concert albums before Columbia. Both Eugene Wright and Joe Morello inspired my drum and bass playing. ❤

What I love about Dave Brubeck is that he seems just as much a fan of jazz as a player himself - check out him grooving to Morello's drum solo acting like he has the best seat in the house at the piano.

Been a fan of the quartet for years, and actually saw them re-formed in 1976 in Minneapolis. They were great. Here, they just kill it and don't even seem to break a sweat though Brubeck gets winded sometimes. You realize how hard they are working, but they made it look so effortless. Incredible. I wore out Time Out. I always was impressed by how good a recording it was, and in 1959. Just amazing. What a gift they were.

@marylouleeman 2 ай бұрын

Sweet!! they were just getting started then in the Bay Area, having played at St Mary's College in Moraga and soon would be at the famous jazz club, the Blackhawk. We were just out of high school and tracked his every event. Soon after this came the beginning of acid rock and the Fillmore and all that. What a rich lore.

Morello makes it look so easy, and I suppose it was, but only for him and nobody else. That was extraordinary -- can't be described with words -- transcendent.

I can't think of another set of 65-year-old tunes that still sound this fresh and vital. I can't think of many songs from *_any_* era that sound this fresh and vital. That Joe Morello drum solo in 'Castilian Blues' is jaw-dropping.

Paul Desmond to this day remains a major musical influence, including on my guitar playing. No other alto player comes close. All jazz drummers stop and pay homage at the shrine of Joe Morello. Can't get enough of Dave's "block-y" style, pure genius. So glad I grew up on this music back in the 50's and 60's, and this was before the big rock explosion of the 60's. Special bonus seeing columnist RJG, one of the most insightful writers in all of music criticism. Man oh man, this is so incredibly good.

Ahhh....the mastery of pulling the audience in at 3:35, just by lowering the volume and still delivering the power. Joe has always been my favorite drummer for his skill, his humility and his respect for his students and other professional drummers. I've never heard anything negative about him. I've watched "Take 5" many times on videos, in different settings and he always varies just a little in each but still delivers the heart of the song. It is obvious that for Joe, this was so much more than a job, it was a passion.

Dave,Gene, Joe,Paul.. 5/4 time new at that time..First on a 'outlaw' jazz station in San Diego using trans towers from Tijuana,Mexico..and a city in Oklahoma. Denver at this time be a Jazz jock getting down with 'the new sounds of jazz'..early 1950's . Using tape recorder taped many of the jazz stuff. Buddies come on over and listen to the sounds of "Modern Jazz"...A local club jammed also with the 'new giggs..Man,Denver was Hip!
