This was originally written by the sax player Paul Desmond for the drummer Joe Morello's solo. What a brilliant master piece / drum solo !!! One of the coolest jazz pieces ,if not the coolest !!! 😎 👍👍👍😍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
Living and learning, that's true. Paul asked Dave to compose a song to showcase his hability and Dave dekegate to Paul. And that was life time decision
The talent of these musicians is beyond reality. The cues are impossible to see - it's instinct with these gentlemen! Morello on drums and Desmond on sax and Wright on bass adding to the smoothness of Brubeck's keys - man oh man! In color - worth watching again and again!
For all the people who think it’s odd these guys are well dressed, this is how musicians dressed up until the 70’s. I really can’t think of a jazz giant who didn’t wear a suit and tie.
@Macht Schnell Sixties, actually, I would think. Things relaxed a bit in the 70's, at least from what I remember (I was pretty young though, so I might be misremembering....)
Junior High school in 1973. Was drafted into the jazz band and our teacher gave us Take Five to learn and perform. I was blown away by it. Still am to this day. Awesome performance.
Hey! I saw 1973 JR HIGH and thought Id ask if your band director gave you drummers an orange/black paper back book of "20 of the Greatest Jazz Drummers"?..Cant find it on anywhere the web? Started with Jo Jones, then Art Blakely I think? Ya get to the middle and theres JOE...BUT?.. at 13, I felt like this Cat cannot compare to the ULTRA KEWL Ginger Baker, Cozy Powell or Carmine Appice CAUSE....These cats had LONG hair and MONSTER kits...LOL,I cant believe I called Joe a "Banker lookin square" playin a lil wimpy kit..LOL TOTALLY CLUUUULESS!..Im makin up for it NOW though. Been on a JM BINGE for a month now!
My older brother bought Time Out when it first came out and played Take Five hundreds of times. I took up drums in 5th Grade because of it and played all percussion instruments in school then professionally until my mid-twenties. Joe Morello will always be the jazz drummer GOAT to me.
@@blakeh8582 I should have taken piano, it would have definitely helped me on keyboard instruments, like the glockenspiel. In school band and a small city orchestra, I mostly played tympani.
@@Primus54 ... When I was very young, in the late 60s, 5-6 years old I was started on drums. Practice pads. I was too young to be disciplined or focused and my parents didn’t push me. I wish they had. My instructor was a personal student of Joe Morello. He was given signed drum heads as a gift. I met Joe Morello at the Ocotillo Lounge in Palm Springs, Ca. He was playing that night. I wasn’t too much older; maybe 8-9. My instructor introduced me to him. I love the drums. I wish I would have stuck with it.
I had the great fortune of working with Eugene in later years. A great bassist and and an absolutely wonderful human being. He had terrific stories to tell...
Bought the lp in the mid 60's, and it still sounds intriguing till this day. Every player added their classic elements that will live forever. I am so amazed at how fresh it still sounds. Not bad for 60 years old!!!!
This isn't the actual pace. The video is sped up for some odd reason. This sounds rushed and frantic if you're familiar with original. The sound quality is also terrible.
This just drips cool. Joe Morello’s look on those drums; a man at the top of his game. Brubeck’s off tempo slams, the glasses and that smile, Paul Desmond’s wonderful fluidity whilst looking like a stockbroker all underpinned by Eugene Wright’s power beats. Perfection.
Whilst performing Jazz at a Restaurant in San Francisco, somebody requested for us to play Take Five after our set break. The gentleman who made the requested was a vineyard owner from Napa Valley and after we played Take Five we were very happy to see him coming up to the band stand and filling our tip jar. We were astonished at the end of the night and realised he had tipped us around $600 dollars. I'm ashamed to say we never forwarded Dave Brubeck his share.
I always think this is a magnanimous piece where he allows Dave Brubeck and Joe Morello room to show what fine musicians they were. Of course Eugene Wright also has that wonderful bass line throughout. Despite his faults, or in Chet Baker's case because of his faults, Paul Desmond was a popular much respected musician throughout the industry.
I saw Brubeck perform at the Westbury Music Fair sometime in the early 60s. I still remember that Take Five was more like Take Fifteen that night. Everybody else just walked off stage and let Morello do a really long solo.
@@the_rummer i don't necessarily agree, but that's fine Buddy in my humble opinion was too technical Joe was technical AND creative Edit: don't get me wrong, i do think Rich was a LEGEND! It's just that, you know, Joe has a "special spot" in my heart, if you want to put it like that :)
I remember in the 70's thinking John Henry Bonham was the greatest Percussionist in Rock N Roll and he definitely was! Neil Pert was no John Bonham the American Drummer or Percussionist for Jimmy was Definitely I wish I could Remember his name; However He was Equal or Darn close to John Bonham! However, the True Legendary Greats who Invented and Brought The Drum Set or Kit to the Forefront of the stage with Their Upbeat Syncopated Rudemental Artistic Flamboyant Styles They were Definitely Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich and the Great Joe Morello! Even John Bonham said that his most favorite Percussionist was Buddy Rich! Buddy Rich could do Triplets and Sixteenths with One Ludwig 26" Bass Drum and One Ludwig Speed King Kick Drum Pedal! Joe Morello Playing take 5 you can hear him Kicking Sixteenths on his Ludwig Kit/ Single Bass Drum using his Single Ludwig Speed King Bass Drum Pedal! Ludwig is and always will be the Greatest Drum Kit Ever Made here in America North Carolina, Especially, the old Kits from the 30's thru 1980's made in Chicago, ILS.!
Definately so. Corea's Spain, Coltrane's giant steps, miles so what, bird's ornithology or Donna Lee, Rollins oleo, Stitt Cherokee and so on. These are moments of inspiration and musical genius that are captured for generations to marvel at. Take 5 stands tall in this regard. The combination of the music and the musicians that results in something beyond music.
Am glad there are peeps who love the genius of Paul Desmond & Take Five as much as I do. Also dig Mr. Morello, of course, Mr. Wright & Dave Brubeck. This memorable number lives on forever.
I saw these guys at the Kennedy center with Gerry Mulligan when I was a kid. Amazing sound! I'll say they were one of the few bands that could make 5/4 time swing!
Joe's watching Eugene. Dave is watching Paul. And they are locked. I love the music the Quartet made. The Beatles of Jazz IMO. This is colorized but not terrible.
When I see these guys, I remember jazz musicians looking like this. Reminds me of the story by Jean Shepard called “Lost at C”, where he described his math teacher as “tall, with a flattop and horn rimmed glasses and a suit that looked like it was made out of wet and dry sandpaper”. As a child of the late 50’s I remember these guys.
Greatest jazz tune ever period.still my favorite drum solo of all time..never ever get tired of listening to this iconic masterpiece ...If I could try to emulate any drummer of all time,it would be joe morello.
Seriously good Jazz needs to be seriously well recorded and this is magnificent, the drummer is in my living room! Thanks to the brilliant sound engineer(s) who captured this. (listening using Sonab OA5 speakers which seem to love jazz!)
Saw Joe Morello in an open-air concert in Jamestown New York in the mid-60s. What a fantastic performance he put on. A great memory I will always cherish. I am not a musician, but in my opinion Joe was the greatest drummer ever!
It is difficult to classify a drummer as the best. Each have their own style and technique whether it is Jazz, Rock or any other ilke. Gene Krupa was to Swing as Bonham was to rock. Joe made it look so easy without all of the showing off and flamboyance of other drummers.
When I think of Morello in the context of drummers, he has impeccable technique. Morello is also very comfortable playing unusual time signatures and integrating these rhythms in the context of the group. Joe just flows. Listen to that cymbal ride here; just a constant stream of rhythm.
Yes it's pointless this "of all time" nonsense - music performance and talent isn't a sport. Nobody mentions Ginger Baker do they? You can't compare the different genres. Suffice it to say Morello ran a drum clinic and was highly sought after for tuition. I was lucky to see/hear the Brubeck Quartet playing "live" at the Watford Gaumont Cinema/Theatre in the early 1960s I was about 15 at the time. The quartet's performance was magical. Near the end Joe Morello gave his all in a solo that lasted 12 minutes and as he did so, the other group members left the stage and let him have the limelight. It was stunning and of course he got a standing ovation. I'll never forget that night. Brubeck was quite a comedian talking to the audience in between numbers. Sad they're all gone now. But then we will be too soon, we only rent this space on the planet.
I still have the original DBQ vinyl having lugged it, and about 300 others, my travels, including being stationed in Iceland (1972). Thanks for posting.
Sometime ago while walking a friend's dog, named Ringo a young fellow working outside saw us upon learning the dog's name he said that Ringo was the worst drummer in rock n roll..He said there is no one better than John Bonham, thee greatest!. Well I corrected him and told him why I thought he was wrong about Mr..Starr. This bleeding had heard of Joe Morello ( no ).and I gave him a brief oral history lon drummers, Morello, Jo Jones who gota standing ovation @ the Newport jazz festival with only a high hat solo.Kids these days.......don't know the difference between a fiddle from a pair a diddle.!!!!
Comparisons when musicians are this great are losing battles, I guess. MJQ, Connie, and many others are absolutely world class. But, for me, I'll take this Dave Brubeck Quartet.
These accountants are seriously good jazz musicians.
I was going to say serial killers but accountants is much funnier
That was Cool
And you are a seriously good comedian
Nah, them catz are kewl!
@Frederico Penteado Dave Brubeck begat the Beatles. ;)
Matching suits. Matching hair. Matching glasses. These guys were Devo before Devo were Devo.

Even Trane, Charlie Christian, Bird they pretty much all did. They each meant business wen they performed.

Meraviglioso Joe Morello
It's refreshing to see musicians who aren't dressed like they're going to a picnic. Plus I'm loving all those "old school" Neumann microphones.
Imagine playing like Dave can and be able to watch/enjoy the other musicians at the same time. Great performance.

They were way more hip and progressive than their image let on.

He is a human metronome on this bass line. A regular atomic clock

And the Recording is STILL good!
The pace of this version is incredible. Just flying!
Nah, it's just the original played back far to fast....awful.
Tempo seems faster than other versions I’ve seen/heard.
@@thereisaplace definitely. WAY faster than the original recording. I like both. There's more energy when played this fast.

@@iseeolly9959 I'm glad someone else noticed. This has been butchered.

One of the greatest drum solos of all time! And if my memory serves me correctly, the first jazz piece to earn a million dollars!
Whilst performing Jazz at a Restaurant in San Francisco, somebody requested for us to play Take Five after our set break.

I hope Joe got a% of that million sales🎖🏅
Wow!
a monument in music, like like the pyramids in aegypt.
_Time Out_ was the first album I ever bought. Timeless.
I believe the expression often used back then for jazz musicians " cool cat " belongs to JOE MORELLO !!! 😎 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
Maestro Brubeck totally absorbing what the soloists are saying. Brilliant!
Sorry, but these are not maestro level players. These are virtuoso level players.
Impossible to stop listening. Really miss these guys!!
Apart from the incredible sounds, the filming is brilliant!
Joe Morello placed himself on the Jazz Mt. Rushmore with this performance.
Saw the quartet live my freshman year at Penn State (1966). Something I will never forget.
My wife and I saw Dave and his quartet in 2006. A magic evening!
forever great
Experienced Brubeck in the 80's at the Clearwater Jazz Holiday. I'll never forget that.
I always think this is a magnanimous piece where he allows Dave Brubeck and Joe Morello room to show what fine musicians they were. Of course Eugene Wright also has that wonderful bass line throughout. Despite his faults, or in Chet Baker's case because of his faults, Paul Desmond was a popular much respected musician throughout the industry.
That is so fast from the album. Just great shit. Joe Morello be thy name.
I was lucky enough to see Dave Brubeck live in the mid 90's
It's wonderful how this jazz song still listened by people nowadays
So much better than the shortened 'single' version I heard on radio as a 12 year old kid. It's a work of genius.
Interestingly, the 45 version wasn't just a shortened version of the LP, it's a completely different take with completely different solos.
Pure talent 👏
I was introduced to this in about 1974, in a friend’s room at university. It has remained one of my fave tracks ever since.
What I love about this clip is that it clearly reveals that these guys definitely had a sense of their own genius.
I saw Brubeck perform at the Westbury Music Fair sometime in the early 60s. I still remember that Take Five was more like Take Fifteen that night. Everybody else just walked off stage and let Morello do a really long solo.
Westbury was a nice intimate venue
That musta been something!
Whoever sent this, so happy. What a simply amazing groove.
Hep cats, brilliant.
That drum solo inspired the great Ginger Baker to create the famous Toad solo. A real innovator.
Led Zeppelin's first tour in the U.S. when they landed in NY, John Bonham immediately went to go see Joe Morello his idol.
good old days
Morello makes it look so easy. Like he's looking to see if his sandwich is ready.
Great comment.
I'm going with sandwich toaster at back of stage
Great analogy 😎
Hahah!
Let's not forget Desmond's sublime playing
And giving all the earnings of this song to the Red Cross
Uniquely simple harmonic solos full of subtle emotions. Immediately recognizable.
Absolutely! Each note like a pearl floating on air.
This is beautiful! Seeing Joe's solo in color is something I can't describe.

I like my father am completely in love and obsessed with this fabulous piece of music.
Wonderful
I can imagine Steve McQueen parked out front in a '68 Mustang GT 390 waiting for Jaqueline Bisset to have a super cool jazz filled lunch with him.

Vous êtes des géants de la musique....Respect

Now this is MUSIC 😻
just what i needed to heal my soul today
Joe's drumming is other worldly!
Wow that made me feel great
Saw an extended version with Morello playing with his hands during his solo.
Saw Joe Morello in an open-air concert in Jamestown New York in the mid-60s. What a fantastic performance he put on. A great memory I will always cherish.
I am not a musician, but in my opinion Joe was the greatest drummer ever!
In the 70s, saw him w his teenage sons in a small college auditorium. The beginning of a life long love affair w jazz.
