The incomparable Dave Brubeck had his 89th birthday recently. Most of the performers who were active in the late '50s and early '60s are gone, but he's still active. It's an inspiration, knowing that this man has stayed so active, so long. I only discovered his music about ten years ago, but it's amazing stuff. It's a half-century old, some of it, but it sounds as if it could have been written yesterday.
Here's a performance by the Dave Brubeck Quartet from 1966.
