Dave Brubeck Dead: Jazz Legend Dies Aged 91 RIP.


A sad day for me, Dave Brubeck has passed on, a great musician and innovator, he will be sadly missed. His drummer for many years was Joseph Albert Morello (July 17, 1928 – March 12, 2011) was for me one of the all time greats. I played drums for around fifty years, and Joe, blind for many years was one of my gurus and governors, he was total class, and taste personified. Check this vid out, the first and maybe only hit record in 5/4 time.
