Dave Brubeck plays for Webster

Here's a little gem to enliven your weekend - a film from 1961 of The Dave Brubeck Quartet playing "Take Five", easily his most famous piece.  It's especially notable for the sublime drum solo from a chap who looks to 21st Century eyes as if he should be an actuary, but is actually Joe Morello.

Double click on the arrow in the picture to start it, and make sure your loudspeakers are on.

Dave Brubeck, in Oldie parlance "Still with us" at 86, and still playing.
