Dave Brubeck RIP

[Ron Thorne]

Tonight, The Daily Show's moment of zen was Dave Brubeck at the Kennedy Center Awards. Very nice.

Patti & I noted that simple, classy stroke, too.

We haven't been deprived of the company of Horace Silver or Sonny Rollins yet, but Brubeck was definitely one of the last of the era.

but, sadly, we actually have been deprived of Horace and his music, even though he's still with us.

I bought a couple of Brubeck discs just this past year on the theory that you can never hear too much Dave B, especially alongside Paul D. RIP.

If I die in my 90s after having done the work that's meaningful to me to the very end, I hope nobody will call my death awful news.

I never would, Pete.

Mr. Silver has had Alzheimer's disease for a number of years now and I believe has been in a care facility.

Damn, sorry to hear that, Mike. Another Connecticut based musician on the ropes. Damn!

Song For My Father, baby.

If I'm still alive at 91 I hope someone calls it awful news.

Just for the hell of it. For anyone that doesn't already know this. Try listening to "All My Loving" and see if you can guess which "Time Out" composition it was "borrowed" from.

I can't answer that one. But I always adored "Kathy's Waltz". Just sayin'.
