The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Blue Rondo a la Turk

I don't know if it's kosher to post a "video" clip that's only of a picture, but I'm hoping the song can stand on its own.

Blue Rondo is from Time Out, which was an experimental album. The name of the album is a play on words based on the songs it contains, which have non-standard time signatures. Blue Rondo starts in 9/8, and continues on at an unusual tempo.

Although Take Five is the more well-known piece from Time Out, I enjoy this song for its looser fix on tempo and its overall energetic feel. I'm biased, though: this was also the first jazz piece I ever played.
