You know Brubeck was from Concord? His dad had a ranch near town. I
think they even have a park named after him. His first albums had Bill
Smith playing clarinet. Bill came to the U of W to teach when I was
there and a few years later ran into him on TM residence courses.

Typical Dave Brubeck, a jazz innovator. But that's a tough beat to
dance with. But Earth, Wind and Fire in the 1970s created a different
soul sound by using 6/4 time and 6/8 time. The sound is more
understandable with a slow funk. But it's difficult to play,
especially when the musicians have to dance in unison for a
choreographed performance.
