NEEDLE DROP: Dave Brubeck Quartet, It's A Raggy Waltz



A quick dose of music to keep the week rolling, this time a fun bit of film I've never seen of Dave Brubeck and band playing one of the great tunes from his series of rhythmic experiments. I love about this tune that it plays homage to the roots of jazz (ragtime), plays with rhythm (by updating a 2/3 waltz beat to swing), and manages to be just great listening at the same time.
