“Jazz Casual,” great show from the 50s. It’s a shame it’s pretty much forgotten, as it features a who’s-who of great jazz musicians playing incredible live performances. Worth hunting down!
Sometime around "98"-"02" maybe, I saw Dave on a pledge drive for PBS. He was playing with a drummer(not Joe) and this guy was phenomenal. He could literally make them talk. The way he rolled off the snare into his phrasing was unlike anything i have ever heard. If anyone has seen that performance, and more importantly could help me find it, please, please, I just want to see it one more time.
isn't it more like 6/8 + 5/8? same difference...almost. ;) the intro and song are in triplet feel, so it seems to me it would be more like 6/8, rather than straight eighth or straight quarter notes.
have you heard of a track called World's Fair by Dave Brubeck? if you haven't, check it out. it's on the Time Changes album. the meter on it is 3/8 + 3/8 + 4/8 + 3/8, or 13/8. ;) pretty cool!
this is great! ;) big fan of odd meter here. i love the math in music. like Dave says, it makes you think. i started out as a drummer in school and learned early on how important it is to be able to count. took some piano along the way, and picked up bass at 15. the rhythm section plays a vital role in a band. they have to have their stuff together, or it all falls apart. i like the note at the end of this video - '...when 4 is a bore...' ;) nothing wrong with 4/4 meter, but 5, 7, 9, 11, etc is more interesting and challenging. it's influenced and shaped me into the musician i am today.
Thank you for this upload !!... I've known about Dave Brubeck for years but I have only ever listened to Take 5. This video has now pushed me into really listening to him. I've been on a path of composing my own original brand of prog rock music and there aren't many bands out there that really use chords in odd meters.
Not many bands that play in odd meters? Maybe not in this 'prog rock' genre (I don't know anything about that), but you might want to check out Avishai Cohen's album called Gently Disturbed to start with.

This is a great clip,play for everyone
Love the 11/4 time signature intro to Whipping Post by the Allman Brothers, especially the live version.

What a genius.
And I don't use that phrase often.

I love this interview as well. He's talking about the music like he's a physics professor explaining an experiment. :)
Paul Johnson Exactly! ☺ Dave was and is the man.
Love the ending. 😎
Love him... WTF is all that horrible noise towards the end - what a shame!
Fabian Jolivet its called odd time signature that horrible noise, I think the video wanted to suggest this concern...its heavy for sure
Thats exactly what squares said of Brubeck when Take Five came out.

Happy 100th, Dave. (12/6/2020)
cool, thanks for sharing this!
Quist! :D
Cool story
You're welcome
Paul Desmond is the composer of Take Five.
well, Paul brought the melody, and Dave conceived of the rhythm and arrangement
.
The ending got me lmao
I didn't know Steve martin was into jazz in the 50s!
Were Brubeck Evans and Gould ever in the same room?
And he died just one day before his birthday.Perfect.
@@matthiasmax2849 More poetic than anything. Dave was a pioneer of using odd signatures in his music.

Why would they finish such a wonderful clip with that noise?
It's the jazzy thing to do, you were clapping 2 and 4 all the way till the end weren't ya, that's no longer the jazzy do thingy
Is that August burns red at the end? I love odd time metalcore.
The clip at the end is from the track, "Dislocated," by 'Tyrant of Death'
Lmao
@@whosgotthetimethanks so much !
