If you haven't seen it, check out this video of The Dave Brubeck Quartet Plays "Take Five" in 1964. (I think)

Just beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes, just watching it again. The beauty of jazz right there, every single reason why I love jazz just rolled into one video of a song...

Very good video. Paul Desmond was called the ‘whispering saxophonist’ because of his airy tone. I much preferred a harder tone, such as that of Cannonball Adderley, so I didn’t listen to much Desmond when I was developing my sound.

Thanks for that link. It is a much better quality video of the quartet than the ones on YouTube.
