Tune of the Day

"Blue Rondo a la Turk"  on the Two Generations of Brubeck album.  Wow.

There are many fine versions of this tune, but this one gets me dancing, clapping, fist-pounding, whatever, every time....and it's not easy to dance in, what, 9/8?  I love tunes that grow, build, develop, and move through changes.  This one just picks me up and takes me right along with it.  Great melding of jazz and rock idioms, too.  It's fun to imagine Dave Brubeck setting the groove and then sitting back to hear where his kids and their friends take it. 

You can continue exploring Dave and the kids on Two Generations of Brubeck, "The Great Spirit Made Us All".  And Chris Brubeck's rock/jazz band Sky King on "Secret Sauce".

For extra credit, give a "spin" to Chase, "Bochawa" from their last album, Pure Music.

Anyway, that's my two cents today.

mofimadness,

My wife and I went to a local, mosty used some new record/albumn store yesterday and she picked up The Eagles you referenced above. The place is called Phil’s Records. I’m glad she found it among the thousands of discs he has. It’s a keeper.
She alao grabbed Out on the Border.

aolmrd1241,
Since you pulled Mountain off the shelf, I felt compelled to listen to Leslie West "Left by the Side of the Road to die".
