Bravo...!!!....Ce sont exactement les mots qui sont dans chaque note de musique de ce morceau légendaire...Ah Paris 1965.... cave St Germain....souvenirs.....
Dave Brubeck's playing here is so understated that the first time I ever saw a video of "Take Five," I thought that Paul Desmond was Brubeck. Now that's class.
Paul Desmond wrote Take Five (it was originally intended just to let drummer Joe Morello have a solo, then turned into the band's greatest hit). Desmond didn't have any family to will his belongings to, so he left his royalties earned by Take Five after he died to the Red Cross; it's estimated that every year they receive $100,000 from his legacy.
Listening to Joe Morello play so comfortably and fluidly in 5/4, and then hearing his call and response from the snare to the tom...it's just amazing, and I can't help but think the great jazz/rock drummer Ginger Baker learned significantly from hearing him. I wish I could have met Joe. I did have the honor of meeting Dave Brubeck, and telling him how much he influenced my own piano playing, with his rhythmic left/right hand syncopation.
Actually, they didn't have a choice. The required work clothes back then from casual to formal was in 3 categories: Casual - sport coat and nice slacks Dress - suit Formal - tuxedo Been there, done that. I still have all 3 wardrobes because some venues require it.
I'm a retired architect. About time at 75! In drafting class in junior high, the teacher played music. Evidently that was the tradition. Anyway that tune was played every day. I loved it. To this day the drum solo is the greatest I've ever heard. It's a hoot to watch these "hep cats" play!
A jazz absolute masterpiece. The drummer's solo is amazing, playing in a very difficult way the many drummers cannot handle ; I am not a musician, so I do not know why
I started out as a self-taught rock drummer in a garage band in the mid-60's. Then I heard this song. My life was changed forever. I found an excellent jazz drummer with a style very similar to Joe Morello's which was light, flowing and very powerful. I am still practicing. I could listen to this forever while I can only take 5 minutes of Buddy Rich. Joe's playing is perfection. In all of his videos, he is a true gentleman who is always modest. Rest in peace, Joe. You still live in my heart.
Thank you for calling my attention to Joe Morello's drumming. I am desperately old but _Time Out_ was _the_ album to have when we were seniors in high school and college if you were hip. Like you, I could loop this for hours on end!
Same experience as you. I'm 75. Picked a new silver sparkle Slingerland kit in 1976 and still play light rock, jazz, swing. Have been offered 5-6 thousand dollars as my kit is mint....chrome is perfect and the wrap is tight with NO fade, yellowing or ginger ale. A little of Buddy goes a long way.
Joe Morello might look like a baby-faced accountant, but his drum solo on "Take Five" is the coolest, yet most elegant drum solo in the history of jazz 🎶. I also like the way Brubeck turns and and actually watches Morello play.
A Timeless Piece....all of these Gentelmen are Masters....poor Mr. Eugene Wright The Bassist didn't get his individual highlight...but i gueass it was the times then, A GREAT JAZZ PIECE.
The "accountant" look wasn't really a choice. That uniform was mandatory at the time. If you didn't dress accordingly, you didn't work. Some places still require this. My first tuxedo was given to me by a sax player. I still have tuxedos and suits in my closet, just in case.
@Zając Trusev Who said he did, Desmond is credited with composing "Take Five," but Brubeck says the tune was a group project with Desmond providing two main ideas. "Paul came in with two themes unrelated, and I put it together as a tune and made a form out of it," Brubeck says. "He came in with two themes.19 Nov 2000
@@porkstack Brubeck didn't even understand what jazz is. His themes were just shit on a stick and he couldn't tell teh difference. Only stuff I can listen to him playing is not his own. Desmond brought way more than two themes.. he brought something which Brubeck never managed to grasp in the entirety of his career.
Morello is the bomb on the drums. My dad was a drummer in a jazz band in the 1930s and later met Morello when Brubeck was playing in Concord, California in the early 1960s.
Everything I've ever heard or read about Joe says that Joe was the perfect gentleman in all ways. He was never condescending to a student and was always complimentary to fellow musicians. Unfortunately, I heard the opposite about Buddy Rich but that is another story. My favorite drummer of all time is Joe Morello and my favorite living drummer is Jeff Hamilton, also a gentleman.
ohh did you Dad ever share stories? I would love to hear his stories from that decade~ jazz drummers are my favorite musicians! I myself am the daughter of two jazz pianists so it was such an interesting childhood!
Oh my..so smooth an immortal jazz classic. Joe Morello just plays it like it's a walk in the park. Staying in 'five' during the drum solo section is not easy.
I’ve tried to conquer this groove and failed. I can get the ride pattern, kick and hats on 2 and 4 but as soon as try comping the snare it all turns to shit. Joes is a phenom.
@@41PH4B3TS0UP hard to keep thinking in 'five' my natural inclination is to fall back in a 'four feel' I try to keep the hi-hat foot strokes on beats 'two three and 'five' while steady light bass drum notes on all 5 beats whether that is technically correct or not it works for me. The hardest part of the tune is the drum solo sections because the figures run over the bar lines.
@@thomasmoje5926 I don’t really have an issue with the 5 because the ride holds the pattern nicely and you obviously land the kick on one and to my ears the keys and bass sound like the 2, 3, 4, 5 The comping is insanely difficult for me. That’s the limb that makes the brain say ya nah I don’t think so. I just respect Joe for making it look like a cake walk. What a phenomenal drummer.
I heard Dave play at Scope in Norfolk & the first chair cello player from the Norfolk symphony played back & forth with the drummer during Take Five & I had a seat right in front of them, totally amazing.
Whenever I need inspiration, or to get my head straight, I play Take Five (any version). Their elegance while playing together and the melody itself is timeless!
I love the little nod from Desmond at the end, as if to say to the audience yes we are that good. Don’t forget this is live and heading to the credits of a tv show. Just wonderful.
I could never tire of listening to this classic piece of music. The original version with the Dave Brubeck Quartet stands head and shoulders above all the other renditions. But while it sets the benchmark, this piece of music permeates the music world and so many other great outfits have benefited by having it in their play list. I think that adds to the value of the successful acceptance of this great masterpiece.
Sunday Afternoon, a bottle of Vodka, a litre of Tomato Juice, (+ Worcestershire Sauce, Tabasco, and Celery Salt), and Dave Brubeck. I'm closing in on Heaven.
.I was a wee lass at 7 or 8 when I would skip school and plant myself in front of my dad's home-made,huge speakers. I was enthralled with Getz,Mulligan,Peterson, Rollins, Holiday, Sinatra,Bennet,et al. I skipped school a lot...from 1964 on...
Estoy viendo ésto en dvd. Mágico es poco decir. Los calificativos huelgan...la performance de todos los músicos que participan es maravillosa! Me emociona hasta las lágrimas!
After a hard day of work, standing in these heels for 8 hours, I like to come home to a smooth Pall-Mall, a tall 7&7, and listen to some Dave and the gang. You know, just to cool down. Happy New Year! Gee, kids, with President Kennedy getting assassinated last year, and now space travel AND the Beatles? Can it get any crazier?
Yes. I'm a babyboomer and went through all of this chaos. I never knew what tomorrow would bring. We had to live one day at a time and try to appreciate the good times. IBecause of Joe, I went from a music illiterate and very loud garage band rock drummer to an educated smooth and low volume jazz drummer. Joe has always been my idol. Yes, I still like to listen to classic rock but I only play smooth jazz, pop and classic soul. Watching and/or listening to Take Five is like meditating.
I'm not a drummer but from the rock world, the only drummer that I can see being from a similar mould as Joe Morello is Neil Peart. I'm not comparing Peart to Morelo, just making the observation that Neil Peart is about the only drummer from the rock genre that could play like Joe Morello because Peart was a thinking man's drummer.

Never gets old
Timelessly elegant, emotional, intense, hypnotic, excellent, instructive, inspirational, reflective, joyful, smooth and so cool.
You have said my heart, my mind, my words. Thank You.

Coolest damn accountants on earth.
I’m a 71 year old black woman in Georgia and found it’s way to my house. Amazing timing.
I'm nearly six decades old Bavarian. All the best to Georgia, where I will probably never get to. A hearty "Servus!" from Bavaria.

Music that never grows old.
My own favorite piece of jazz. RIP all four of these phenomenal gentlemen.

Excellent comment, Boomerguy.Joe Morello was great.I would rather listen to him then drummers who sound like they're playing exercises.

This was done 60 years ago supporting my theory thar good music and art last forever.

yes .. Think they played i LULEÅ (Sweden) I went in school there ..1955 .. ! remember ... well ..
& after that great piece, He gives Brubeck His cue to get back 'On Track', as it were !! 🎶😀
A Timeless Piece....all of these Gentelmen are Masters....poor Mr. Eugene Wright The Bassist didn't get his individual highlight...but i gueass it was the times then, A GREAT JAZZ PIECE.
Right. The drummer decides when he is finishing his solo and gives the leader the cue when to come back in, on the downbeat.@@antonyconnolly2738

All the musicians in the song are absolute geniuses
Why because they are white and playing black music!

NYC. Strolling down the street. Heard this song playing in a bar. Went in. Changed me.
The look of Brubeck to Paul Desmond says everything!!!
An art form in itself. Dave B's music takes us to another place. These are gems to cherish for all time.

Keep that 5/4 … That’s why Joe Morello was Joe Morello!
Fine jazz - classic, sexy ! The variety of instruments are interesting , and make up the music , each individual ! I love it !
I learned to play Take Five on the piano in high school. Tough, but once it clicked, I loved it. 😊
What is amazing is their improvisations are always new and spontaneous. Heard it how many times? It’s genius.
Yes, that's the true definition of 'Jazz'... 🎶🙂
I heard Dave play at Scope in Norfolk & the first chair cello player from the Norfolk symphony played back & forth with the drummer during Take Five & I had a seat right in front of them, totally amazing.
Morello wonderful master of metres! Such an intelligent drum solo! This really paved some new ways for drumming and drum solos
It might have been meant for a “take a 5 minute break” song but it became legendary
Whenever I need inspiration, or to get my head straight, I play Take Five (any version). Their elegance while playing together and the melody itself is timeless!
You hear this piece and wonder how many time Mr Brubeck & Co. played this and had small variations - like perfect waves crashing on the beach.
All the hours of my life I would listen this jazz with Brubeck, Desmond, Morello and Wright. The time is not sufficient
Love this….grounds me….takes me back to a time when angst and fear didn’t exist…..thank you for posting 😮😅😊
Absolutely fabulous music 🎶 🎵 👌 ❤
Absolutely beautiful, and all in suits and ties. How things changed...

Great song, great album and great band
Heard this days ago and can't stop playing.
Every time I watch this video I think of four high school science teachers getting together after a day of teaching and playing jazz like this.
Paul Desmond is amazing unequaled.
still love it in 2022
Here is were you see the respect of the musicians to each other ❤🎉
Jazz drum solos can be defined as controlled chaos leading to timed serenity.
Mi mamá tenía 5 años cuando grabaron este vídeo. Yo tengo 35 años, amo esta canción. La amo tanto que cuando muera quiero lo pongan.
En clase de sax me ha tocado interpretar está excelente melodía y es un deliete Paul unos de los mejores...
Toda una genialidad

love the understated discord on the piano pure dreamland !

My absolute favorite.of all time.
Jazz is to me a musical treasure. Give me this chestnut over what I like to call disposable music with vile lyrics anytime.
this is outrageous!
Timeless. Like Mozart. Bettovin, etc. Always have ears for his music!
