Kennedy Center Honors/Dave Brubeck

Did anyone catch the Kennedy Ceter Honors tonight? It was a great show which featured Bruce Springsteen, Mel Brooks, Robert DeNiro and Dave Brubeck! The Dave Brubeck portion was phenomenal as they showcased his career and his music (never listened to it much but know a few tunes....I am gonna pick up a few CD's ASAP!) The highlight of the show I thought was the musical tribute to Brubeck which kicked into high gear when his 4 sons were introduced playing the music of their Father! Obviously gifted musicians in their own right Brubeck was so taken aback by their participation you could read his lips when he said "I will be God damned"...it was a beautiful moment and you could tell he was just as proud as he could be that his sons were up on stage playing his music in tribute! Great stuff!! I am looking forward to delving into Dave Brubecks music! Any fans out there? Do you have any album recommendations?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
