Throughout life, one often remembers the legacy of a musician by the universal language he or she leaves the world. As such, we will remember composer/pianist, Dave Brubeck for his jazz musical talent and social activism. Mr. Brubeck, well known for selling a million copies of the famous
"Take Five" single, and for being the first Caucasian to sit in and play with an all black band, dies a day before his 92 birthday. In doing so, since music is a universal language, Mr. Brubeck, and his jazz quartet band has broken numerous musical and social barriers. RIP, sweet prince...perhaps you, Louis, and Coltrane can rock the heavenly house tonight; and that would be one time I would love to be a fly on the wall. -:)
Take a listen to one of jazz music's greatest legends:
