I Hear You’re Mad About Brubeck
I first became aware of Dave Brubeck through a lyric in this Donald Fagen song, which was in reasonably heavy MTV rotation in the early 80s. Travel back to a somewhat cooler time. Brubeck died on Wednesday just one day shy of his 92nd birthday.

R.I.P….an incredible musician. He was my gateway to jazz.
I love Brubeck, but I add him, like George McGovern, to the list of people who when they died, I thought were already dead.
Nice analogy for someone you claim to love………Brubeck will live on forever through his music……
