Never been a great jazz fan but I do have 2 copies of Take 5 on vinyl. That's pretty much the highest compliment I can give the man!

What a long & full life.

Rest in peace, and thanks for your generosity. (http://www.pacific.edu/Community/Centers-Clinics-and-Institutes/Brubeck-Institute.html)

A true gentleman as well as a musical genius.

[Mr MidFi]

I own just 4 jazz albums. Time Out is one of them. That says a lot, I think.

Time Out is a staple in my small jazz collection, too. Take 5 was in the rotation last night. RIP.

the Man was one of jazz (greatest contribution) I'm listening to a few tunes with him, and Paul Desmond, as I pay my respect

take 5,10. RIP DB

Wow I hadn't heard this until reading this thread just now. I too have a small (maybe 200 record) jazz collection - wouldn't say that Brubeck plays a dominant role in my collection - but the two records I have of his are in my top 25. I think I'll spin the Carnegie Hall concert tonight.
