Missed the show last night, but Brubeck was a cool guy in the days when
cool was truly cool.
Caught him in the Metropole in Manhattan in the early 60's and at the Newport
Jazz Festival. 60? There was a $2 cover charge at the Metroplole and you could just about touch the "Greats" where they played behind the baah.
Had all his music recorded on those old 8 inch reel tape recorders and on the old 78's.
Who knows where they are now or i could play them on Clammer's Victrola.
Clammah, you still using the same needle?
Did Mel Brooks do any comedy.
Imho, the funniest comedian i ever heard.
