Well, I’ve been working on a piece on Dave Brubeck–focusing on Time Out and Time Further Out–for over a month now, and it’s still not ready. Today, he passed away. Amazingly, he would have been 92 tomorrow. What a brilliant artist. Rest in Peace, Mr. Brubeck. How many minds did you boggle during your life? Thank you.

Watching the portion of Ken Burns’ Jazz where Brubeck is talking about his experiences during and right after the war had me totally in tears.

A true giant among jazz musicians and men. I posted this piece about Brubeck on the CWR blog a bit ago.
