Take Five is one of the most well-known songs in the history of jazz music. In 1959, the Dave Brubeck Quartet released Time Out, an amazing album with Take Five as its most popular song. There isnt one single reason why Take Five became so popular, but rather there are many. It required the collaborative talents of all four members of the quartet to create such a great flowing song. Dave Brubeck brought his expertise with the piano. Paul Desmond produced his amazing saxophone sound, along with his composition talents in writing the song. Gene Wright provided an excellent bass backbeat. Joe Morello brought his amazing talents on the drum set to give the song exactly what it needed. All of these elements were in full force in producing this song.
Dave Brubeck — piano
Paul Desmond — alto saxophone
Eugene Wright — bass
Joe Morello — drums

My Dad used to have this album. I grew up on the stuff. I get a better picture of my Dad listening to this than I saw of him, when I was growing up. Cool. Thanks Dad.

went to the DB quartet at the Gruga-Halle in Essen Nov. 9 1961, it cost 4 D marks
when there were over 10 D marks to the £, good value for money. It was a really
memorable night.

This is the Original version, and it is absolutely timeless.
Joe Morello's solo is superb.
Perfection ~
