Brubeck wrote some jazz classics such as "The Duke" and "In Your Own Sweet Way." But it was a song written by his saxophonist Paul Desmond, "Take Five," that the Dave Brubeck Quartet will be remembered for by most. And the album that song came from, "Take Five," has gone into the history books as one of the great jazz albums ever recorded.
Brubeck's style, his playfulness with time signatures, and his mere presence will be missed by many.
