You said "This is like a jazz number" - This is THEEEEEEE JAZZ NUMBER!

[@rumbarey]

Man, that rhythm section with Joe Morello(drums) and Eugene Wright(bass), was the best. Really showed that the rhythm section is the foundation of any band.

[@shelleybleu4903]

My mum boughtthis album when I was 9. Has always been one of my favourite songs since then. Always playing this song and dancing round the house. Still love jazz because of this albulm.

[@58BURST]

I love what the bassist did with this. Pretty much 3 notes per measure, and placed on beats, 4, 5 and 1. Brilliant spacing. One of the best, by one of the best!

[@jgreber1790]

Here you’ve hit on one of the true masterpieces in music. Dave Brubeck Lived a truly meaningful life. The band the songs, the album covers all iconic.

[@sianwarwick633]

The drummer is so skillful. Half-time paradiddles..to full to half. Setting the beat with the left, and tapping the bar with the right... and smooth sounding. 😅 just wild.

[@thomasjacques5286]

Jazz drumming is one of the most difficult to perform. This is a true American classic.

[@lisannebaumholz5028]

Hope you got to see that recent documentary about Max Roach. I saw it on PBS' American Masters series.

[@normandaubry]

Bravo for reaction to some terrific jazz. Morello is one of my favorite drummer. Truly extraordinary talent!

[@AgingDrummerBoy-ly1js]

A great classic choice ! Have loved this song for decades. I listen to it when I need an uplift!✌️❤️

[@Blue-qr7qe]

That 5/4 thing - One of my first exposures to jazz. I'd just have turned 9 when this was released. My dad was a musician and bandleader who hailed from the Swing era, so he and his friends were all pretty stoked about this one, and i kinda got to sit in on all the excitement. I love this piece. Always have since 1959. Thanks for the play -

[@LynneConnolly]

and this is why jazz drummers can play anything.

[@annamariadelillo2916]

My dad was a huge jazz fan - and I was lucky enough to have seen Dave Brubeck before he passed. My father took me to see him (he was much older) but still rockin' it! Take Five was one of my dad's favorites and mine too. Thank you for checking this out! It brought back memories, now that my dad is gone as well.

[@marleybob3157]

There may have been better alto saxophonists than Paul Desmond, but NOBODY had his tone! I could listen to it all day, every day. In fact, I have!

[@bugvswindshield]

all four.... Stone cold killers. So cool.

[@user-dq5xx9hi4q]

Timeless treasures that may survive forever. Keep the music alive folks.

[@bobschenkel7921]

Even my Mom was a fan of Dave Brubeck. He's very easy to like. "Take Five" was one of her favorites. That's Dave on the Piano.

[@steveclarke4542]

The man on bass gave a roll on that song too. His bass kept the song going. Was mostly solo pieces.

[@richardlandrum1966]

For me, it was always a tie between "take five" and "blue rondo a la turk"

[@cobrax2439]

I think the best part of this is that somebody had the where with all to record it. Making sure great music doesn't die.

[@robertlear2712]

When I graduated the 8th grade in 1962 my parents bought me a portable stereo record player. Stereo was the new thing at the time. I went to record store and they had me listen to a Dave Brubeck album. Mind blown! I bought a bunch more of his albums and was fortunate enough to see him in concert in 1967

[@damienparis5377]

Brubeck was def one of the greats...love this tune...smooth and groovy....nice to hear some jazz on a reaction channel....thanks mate....peace

[@runningcathill]

THANK YOU, LOVE DAVE BRUBECK😍

[@StormyPeak]

I'm a 60 year old woman, when I was a kid, this song was often played on our small town local radio. I haven't heard it for at least 5 years, nice to revisit it again. : ) Good to see a younger person branching out to experience older music too.

[@Gort-Marvin0Martian]

Great jam. The amazing thing is how it was created LONG ago and yet it sounds unique even today. Glad you reacted to it. Y'all be safe.

[@nelsonx5326]

Great song.

[@pardox28]

All 3 solos are good but the drum solo version on the album is the variation that I love the best. Seeing him do this live version is neat but the only on the record has a special place in my heart.

[@DrewG-wd8ql]

Jazz at it's best. Always been a favorite song of his, for me.

[@bobtedeman5975]

smoooooth

[@patricklemeur4607]

un chef d'oeuvre magnifique !.....

[@Scott-tw8go]

Beautiful!!! I just wish they would have showcased Eugene Wright on the Bass, he's amazing!

[@coinneachmaclellan3121]

CLASSIC...I first heard it as a young teen in the early '60s. A friend who was learning piano turned me on to it...hearing it reminds me of how much he liked it. Listening to it makes me think of going for a walk in the park in the Fall and grabbing a coffee at some little out-of-way cafe...

[@mikecaetano]

"Take Five" was a top forty hit in 1961. The song takes its name from the fact it is in 5/4 time rather than 4/4 common time. Dave Brubeck on piano, Paul Desmond on alto saxophone, Gene Wright on upright bass, and Joe Morello on drums. I inherited a copy of Brubeck's Time Out album, which features "Take Five", from my mom when I was a teenager in the eighties. Brubeck et al., explore different time signatures on the album -- 5/4, 6/4, 9/8. "Blue Rondo à la Turk" from that album may have inspired Yes. Brubeck also dropped a great live version of the classic, "St. Louis Blues", in later years. Check it out sometime.

[@DavidCalvert-mh9sy]

When I was a young pre-teen Canadian living in Southern California in the 1950s, Dave Brubeck, along with Nine Simone, were my cool jazz influences. In 1965 my family moved to the U.K., and I was transported to blues heaven. I still love Take Five, and Feelin' Good.

[@MH-fb5kr]

classic… music forever

[@joelmoreno4223]

Joe Morello, Eugene Wright, Paul Desmond and Dave Brubeck, four of the greats of the jazz world, nay, the music world, en toto. Fantastic. I had the privledge of seeing/hearing this fantastic quartet in a very small castle in Germany, couldn't have been more than a hundred people in a small room there. How did they get this acclaimed quartet to play for such a small audience? I don't understand how it was done.

[@fenderchamp8241]

Great album from '59. My year! My dad had this and loved it. Now I do

[@PapaEli-pz8ff]

My earliest memory of this great composition was back in the day when this was first released. I was this innocent nine year old who was hanging out in our local candy store when an older teenage guy entered, walked to the jukebox and selected this masterpiece. His dance moves were so cool.. he was so absorbed by the music 😎 So glad you enjoyed this clip, young man, Thanks for posting and letting it play all the way through

[@dabassmann]

I hadn't heard this live version, only their studio version. Well done! Similar Jazz = Joe Beck or David Sanborn , both worth checking out.

[@billwoods9302]

Time Out was a monumental Jazz album. It landed Dave Brubeck on the cover of Time magazine. Brubeck humbly stated that it should have been Duke Ellington on the cover as a more deserving representative of the genre. This was peak West Coast Jazz, and you just can't overstate the lyrical smoothness of Paul Desmond's saxophone work. Also worth checking out is Paul Desmond's variation of this song on his solo LP, Take Ten. They are the gold standards of cool Jazz.

[@fractuss]

Maybe my favorite saxophone part ever.

[@et2petty]

The first crossover jazz number one... started the awareness of the "West Coast Sound"

[@bradsense7431]

Back in the sixties or seventies WGN television in Chicago used this as the theme song for their late night movie program. It would play beginning and at commercial breaks. It was my introduction. Whoever was doing the programming there was inspired!

[@sourisvoleur4854]

Wow! First reactor I've ever seen do Take 5. Greatest small-combo jazz instrumental ever.

[@kelleyheon9833]

Thanks for reacting! No one plays instruments like this anymore. So sad.

[@mikeduplessis8069]

I remember years ago having a random conversation with my boss at work and he was genuinely impressed that I knew the difference between Dave Brubeck and Bix Beiderbecke.☺

[@MisterWondrous]

Doob, check out Dave's classic in 9/8 called "Blue Rondo a la Turk"...his second most famous song. This one is in 5/4...thus "take five". Then both will be stuck in your head!

[@BaccarWozat]

I'm not a big fan of jazz, but when this song comes on I am.

[@ed.z.]

This was my first album, Time Out” this exact same group in a recording studio. Different solos, of course. Because real jazz musicians don’t repeat themselves during the improvisation portion. It’s spontaneous musical composition. BACH improvised during sections, as his work was notated, and documented.

[@liamwagner6597]

To me Brubeck's Take Five is like starting in autumn a roadtrip early in the morning, driving, no, cruising through the woods to the highway to dawn all the way through BC up to the Rockies (Canada). Or even just from our ground to the campus because sometimes Take Five fits even into the rythm of the daily urban traffic jam. I then call it a smooth awakening ride since I arrive fully prepared for all daily struggles at campus. Good reaction btw.

[@user-sg7gw2cr4f]

Loved it! Saw them live in concert two times in the late fifties, early sixties. My husband was a huge fan.

[@777petew]

Great music was performed many years before you and I were born. I'm 65 so it goes back longer than that. Thank you so much. This is early 1960s.

[@lulugurl6547]

Smooth instrumental! ❤️

[@chrisnicol1644]

Great choice... Dave and the boys live at Carnegie Hall, 1963 will blow your socks off....

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

Just put this record on while you are cooking dinner in your apartments and you are chill for the evening.

[@janna2245]

The recipe actually turns out better. However, if you're cooking a holiday dinner, you have to switch to Vince Guaraldi

[@Tonyr0206]

Joe Morello was one of the greatest drummers of all time. One of the few who could keep up with Buddy Rich, at that time.

[@franksullivan1873]

Old school jazz

[@jolenewitzel7919]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@janetf23]

I think that this was the first album my dad bought after we moved into our first house in 1959 and we never tired of it✨🎶

[@danielperezcabezas109]

Nice! Try to play something fitting in a tempo like this! And Paul Desmond´s sax lines are really beautiful.It´s great you include some jazz in your reactions.Thank you! Good music is always welcome!

[@robertlear2712]

Onother great Dave Brubeck song is Strange Meadowlark.

[@jameslapham4326]

Check out Benny Goodman's Orchestra doing 'Sing, Sing, Sing'. Gene Krupa makes his drums another instrument in the band, not just a rhythm keeper. Another great performance!

[@fractuss]

The Carnegie Hall long version.

[@billc.5861]

Great song. A buddy of mine who’s a professional recording & touring drummer told me a few weeks ago to learn this song on the drums He charted it out for me , show me how it’s played, handed me the music and said show me next week if I got it. No pressure there Hahaha 😜.

[@richardyoung3462]

Drummer Joe Morello's eyesight was failing so badly, he was probably considered "legally blind" by this point, which just makes the solo even more impressive. Watching his head, and during the closeups his eyes, he hardly ever looks at the drums.

[@grouchosays]

Joe Morello on drums. I saw him play in 1973.

[@jimfrederick3907]

This makes you want a cigar with a glass of Cognac!

[@andyzehr9839]

Dave Brubeck with the interesting time signatures ftw! 5/4 time on this one (hence the title). For even more fun, check out “Unsquare Dance” (7/4 time) meaning 7 beats in a 4 beat measure. Good stuff!

[@erikpate1697]

Love the reaction

[@gregorykerr5062]

It was the start of the slow jazz west coast movement written in 5/4 vs 4/4 or 3/4.

[@scgreek1114]

"Take Five" cuz the time signature is an irregular 5/4. Love it! The most recognizable tune in 5/4 time is probably the 60's theme to "Mission Impossible," but there are many other examples including "Living in the Past" by Jethro Tull and the intro to "White Room" by Cream.

[@mrysedeers]

That's music

[@user-nw7ow1ei1q]

I like JMBOY cause he eliminates unessiary conversation.

[@katrinacash6393]

Another great song/instrumental is “Pick Up The Pieces” by Average White Band but has a funkier sound. I really think you would enjoy it based upon the music you appreciate.

[@louismacchia25]

How about “ Take the A train “ Duke Ellington. Glad you’re repping Jazz

[@briancullen9575]

P.S - the drummer, Joe Morello was legally blind. He’s the greatest to ever pick up a pair of sticks.

[@AliasMark69]

David Warren Brubeck was an American jazz pianist and composer. Often regarded as a foremost exponent of cool jazz, Brubeck's work is characterized by unusual time signatures and superimposing contrasting rhythms, meters, and tonalities. Dave is a favorite of my friend John Zov, who can play anything.

[@TruthIsNotTemporary]

Grover Washington Jr kills a cover of this masterpiece 👍

[@user-fc8lz1cg4x]

😎

[@WilliamTheMovieFan]

Check out Herbie Hancock. He has a lot of great jazz tunes. Check out his early works especially his song Wiggle Waggle from his Fat Albert Rotunda album. Bernard Purdie on drums!

[@johnhickman2033]

That's a nice opinion.

[@AnyoneForToast]

A masterpeice. It's as if us (mostly) white boys actually had soul. It sounds like if Glenn Miller had taken life seriously. There's an idea for you, Glenn Miller. Cheers chap.

[@sourisvoleur4854]

White guys in suits and horn-rimmed glasses! But man can they feel it.

[@jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344]

Most people have heard Brubeck songs in the ether but cannot pin the songs to the artist.

[@simchabaruch7023]

Anouther DNA changing pieces.

[@phonebone81]

Dave Brubeck is a really good jazz musician. If you really like jazz music you also should hear The Oscar Peterson Trio "We Get Requests" ! That`s jazz at it`s best beneath David Brubeck - best wishes @all from hamburg germany

[@jettrink7510]

Reeks of the early sixties...

[@jaysneddon584]

Check Oscar Peterson,Cjam blues.if your interested.cheers.

[@Caldermologist]

Dave Brubeck was the leader of the band, but not the composer of this tune. Paul Desmond was.

[@billwoods9302]

Jazz drummers can drum any type of music on the planet, but they chooses to drum jazz.

[@ronaldstokes4841]

This edition is too fast... messes up the feeling.

[@jameswaddell3348]

Joe Morello along with Philly Joe Jones, and Papa Joe Jones were a few of my all time favorite Drummers !Very MUSICAL in their approach to the music! This tune came out in 1959 and the album was called Time Out, which was the first Jazz album that featured all ODD TIME Figures! Masterfully done. This 5/4 signature isn't isn't noticed because it flows so well!
