  • and the drummer...i think i jizzed myself

  • his fingers are like bullets....

  • the coolest sound of jazz

  • Paul Desmond was a very underrated saxophonist. May he rest in peace.

    Dave Brubeck is one my most admired musician/composers

  • Paul was very smooth. made his sax sound like a clarinet sometime

  • Do you have to smile when you blow the horn to get the 'emotion'? If you say Paul Desmond doesn't have the feeling when he played his sax, then I don't know what to say. It only shows that you don't know anything about him at all. Desmond died from lung cancer in 1977. Dave Brubeck is still alive and is 88.

  • Paul Desmond is such an incredible musician, I saw a clip of him performing when he was about 80 and he still had the magic. I wonder if he's still alive?

  • paul desmond died from lung cancer i believe but brubeck is still alive

  • I think he is dead actually. His son Dave Brubeck is my brothers drum teacher, and his son Chris Brubeck taught me bass. I'll have to check in with them to be sure.

  • Oops I mean his son Dan Brubeck, I always get those names mixed up :P

  • I think Brubeck is performing in Stamford, CT some time in April.... have to double check that

  • this is pure art.

  • facinating lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Timeless.

  • me fascina, es una de las mejores composiciones de jazz que he escuchado, yo quiero un novio como èl...

  • NOT a song, it's a tune or melody. A song is SUNG!

  • Shut up.

  • It's better than a song, its a piece of timeless music.

  • That's so true. It's not a song. A song is sung. My piano teacher would get really annoyed whenever I reffered to Moonlight Sonata as a song. it's a piece of music she would say. And this is a wonderful piece of music.

  • @insightnew Getting too technical. Song, in common parlance, is any piece of music.

  • brilliant!!! Thats music!

  • The add of bossa rythme is a really nice experience on Take Five. And Paul is definitely the greatest saxophonist, he plays only 40 seconds but it's difficult to describe the emotion that Desmond put into his instrument. Fabulous.

  • what emotion? hes not putting anything to it he's its you who listen to get some sort of a feeling which is different for every1, when u reach to that level when u play u consider so many aspects which come from all of the learning u been doing for year..its like hes playing and thinking "oh wow i'm so emotional right now"..

  • @darkmaides i think that his friend Desmond play with a serious cancer and died some month after this solo, that's why i say emotion and i never hear Brubeck plays like that.

  • Wow, no words!

  • nice song

  • I play that song in piano... DIfficult but so hot! ;)

  • The drummer tapping on the woodblock through the whole thing was annoying. I miss Morello's easy ride cymbal

  • it is a touch of Bossanova...

  • thats acctually a rim shot not a wood block

  • @ aibezjm:

    the drummer you say "good" is Alan Dawson, the world most important drums teacher in the last 40 years.

    Some of his pupils: Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl, Steve Smith...

  • who's the double bass player?

  • He's no Joe Morello, but he's good.

  • I am a great fan of Joe Morello, but this guy, Alan Dawson is no slouch either!

  • Oh my sweet lord what a feeling in this music. Desmond is a devil on his instrument, and so is Dave. But i miss mr morello on the drum. Where i Mr wright on the bass? But it swings anyway

  • We played this song in band...ahaha we were actually really good =]

  • Where's joe morello!?

  • Thats not Joe morello =0

  • Good.. I just love the songs like this. Are there any other group or bands performing Dave's songs? I've heard one that sounds a bit different. However, I love the original one:).

  • I love Dave's hair like that, he looks like freakin Mozart!

  • not the same without joe morello on drums, but this guy's a good substitute

  • Why wasn't Morello with them?

  • Joe had health issues and taught privately for many years. Doing road gigs, even in big halls, has to wear on one after nearly a decade. Alan Dawson (tony williams teacher) took Joes place for several years after his departure.

  • Saw Dave just a few years ago, live in Bath: still the coolest dude on the planet

  • I love the fact that they all look EXACTLY how they did before, but older versions. Thats exactly how you would have imagined the would have looked if you only saw them in the 50's

  • The best!

  • That dude Dave Brubeck does some "bad" ass playin'.

  • I love brubeck's classic soloing...

  • they ve aged beautifully, like fine wine.

  • viejo idiota sigues tocando la misma estupidez.

  • y tu seguro que sigues diciendo cosas tan inteligentes desde los 6 años.

  • tio...tu debes ser retrasado o algo..."la misma estupidez" refiriendose a la obra maestra del jazz... ves a comentar algun video de la filarmonica de berlin...y escribe q dejen de tocar a strauss...q como ya esta muerto...tambien es una estupidez y no cambian nunca...

  • Oh man, Brubeck is feelin' it in that song.

    Take Five > All.

  • very good very party time..........very jazz

  • Aged to perfection.

  • this is one of my favorite jazz songs ever - inspired me to take up the alto sax. i've been playing for 2 years now =)

  • Nice Clip of Dave playing HIS GREAT STANDARD!!, This Jazz clip will live on forever!!great stuff!! also @ You Tube Marc Jones Vocalist he sings well! ,pop/jazz standards ,check him out!!

  • desmond is great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ..or visite renatorozic dot com ..you ll be surprised ..

    :-)

  • jacdo

    qualité médiocre de la video

  • Silk

  • jeah joe morello is cool

  • Man they look so old and beat down compared to other video on here that was filmed in 62.

  • Older, sure - but "beat down" - ? They still sounded pretty good to me - true, only one Joe Morello - but this guy's got some pretty decent chops of his own - obviously the "original" DBQ (Brubeck, Desmond, Morello and Wright) will always be the greatest ...

  • Actually the original quartet c. 1951 had Bob Bates and Joe Dodge on bass and drums respectively. Check out albums like "Jazz goes to College", "Jazz Red Hot and Cool". And another early recording "Jazz at Oberlin" had Ron Crotty and Lloyd Davis on bass and drums.

  • lcal39 - Thanks for the reminder; I had forgotten the names, but knew that the quartet I refer to as the "original" band was not truly composed of the first ones to play with Dave. But without a doubt Desmond/Morello/ Wright were the most famous - and most would agree - the best, eh? I will check out those albums - still available, I assume, via Amazon, etc.? I'd probably recognize a few of those tunes from so long ago. Thanks again.

  • It´s just not the same without joe morello.

  • Dave and Paul are just awesome!!!

  • so I guess Dave is the pianist?

  • Yeah, and sax is Paul Desmond

  • Awsome.

  • sin palabras. esta cancion es la poya

  • WOW! Jazz in its whole glory. Eu nem sou tou fã do jazz mas isso é absolutamente o máximo! 4 ever and ever....Hallelujah!

  • quelqu'un connait-il la date de ce concert ?

  • Live At The Lincoln Center 1972

  • Conchatumare que excelente VIDEO,, la mejor cancion en la historia !!

  • definately my favorite piano tune

  • Magnifico, e uno tra i migliori pezzi jazz della storia.

  • bossa nove take five. we want morello! thanks for the vid.

  • Rien à dire, c'est tout simplement beau !

  • Paul Desmond é incrível!

  • great sax player!

  • is this the 77 concert.
