Thanks, Todd. I am going to put some Brubeck on right now while I work.
I still have more albums by Brubeck, and particularly the Desmond/Morello/Wright quartet and their extensions (such as the albums with Bill Smith in for Desmond), than by any other performing artists...at least fifty...the Modern Jazz Quartet are the next most populous at at least forty. Mingus might be third these days, I've tended to lose track in the plethora of formats.
You could do worse. The Octet...the Brubeck/Mulligan quartet...the duets album...the orchestral records...Two Generations...
Very nice Todd, very nice indeed :)
Thanks, Sergio. People seemed to have rediscovered it by themselves, two years later, so I popped it back out a little.
This song by the Monkees goes back and forth between 5/4 and 3/4. One of the band's prettiest songs!

John Carpenter's theme for Halloween is also 5/4 time.

Fine additions, Brian, if beyond jazz! I've seen HEAD, didn't remember "As We Go Along" (a Carole King/Toni Stern song)...thanks!
