I love the vocals on that song.....dumbass. More of a composer/ pianist than singer

.. not only that, but paul desmond composed 'take five'... he plays the lead on sax. giving brubeck credit is like giving lennon/mccartney credit for 'while my guitar gently weeps'.

Not to mention, there was a live show today so it isn't "vacation curse"

sorry jhig, but

His death was announced after Howard was done for the week, and according to the listening thread this was the last show of the year (though I doubt it).

sorry jhig, but

I love Paul Desmond! Brubeck I mostly knew from hearing my dad play his songs. I am just partial to saxophones.
Music from way back when is fantastic. I don't get all the auto-tuned crap nowadays.

I really loved his later hit, "Hot and Heavy"

[BethsZygote]

why would you think it was his last show this year?

There are 3 more mondays before Christmas, so thats two more weeks that a normal person would have to work.

Wiggy works next week
