  12. 12/6/2012-Dave Brubeck

    I'm a big Dave Brubeck fan. I say am, not was, because his music lives on in my collection. He and Ramsey Lewis turned me on to jazz when I was a teenager with "Take Five" and "The In Crowd" and I've been turned on ever since. Many years ago, Dave played Kingswood-Oxford in West Hartford with his quartet. I don't remember who all the personnel were (I don't have the CD in front of me as I write this) but I know Jack Six was on bass. I went backstage and asked the guys for their autographs and they easily obliged. They were approachable and cordial. I've since found that to be true among the other jazz greats I've met.
