Most of us have this in our collections ....

Not me, but I did see drummer Joe Morello with guitarist Bola Sete in '67.
^^^ Joe Morello was right in there with Shelly Mann and Stan Levy. Such great drumming! Very musical. 

I have such great memories of listening to live jazz at the various clubs around the Los Angeles area in the 50's and 60's. Truly a lost era. 
Heard "it" (Iowa City Hancher Auditorium) in the mid 70's.

Not a Brubeck fan in general, but loved Joe and Paul.

Suspect that John Belushi got part of his shtick from Joe.
Exactly oregonpapa, musical. Plus, ask any drummer and he'll tell you how hard "Take Five" is to play well. Hard, really hard. Not just technically, but with the right feel. An elusive thing, feel.

Check out the "Conti Candoli" thread. Stan Levy was an amazing drummer too. I sat looking up at the stage at the Lighthouse jazz club in Hermosa Beach on many a night as a teenager back in the 50's watching Stan's feet and hands work his drum set. Simply amazing drumming.
