Dave Brubeck: The Man Who Made Jazz In His Very Own Way

Brubeck at the White House for the 2009 Kennedy Center Honors

Several of my Facebook friends as well as essential bloggers mentioned the passing of Dave Brubeck earlier today. He captured my attention in the late 1950s when I was in my early teens exploring what became a life-long interest in jazz.  George Moneo, writing for Babalu, has a tribute to the artist that reminds OTR of his own journey with Brubeck and jazz oh so many years ago.

We can only imagine the sounds of Heaven in 5/4 time.
