However, the song you're talking about is "Blue Rondo a la Turk". The time signature is listed as 9/8 (2+2+2+3/8) . And he uses all sorts of asymmetric groupings. These are the ones I can think of offhand:
Unisphere: 10/4
Unsquare Dance: 7/4 (as 4+3/4)
Take Five: 5/4
Eleven Four: 11/4 (obviously)

I believe the piece Hal is thinking of is "Blue Rondo a la Turk." Of course, this might not be the only one where Brubeck used those groupings.
Harold Owen wrote: [snip]me. In some of my pieces the grouping changes often, and I don't like having to change the time signature all the time. I seem to recall a Dave Bruebeck tune that went 2-2-2-3, 2-2-2-3, 2-2-2-3, 3-3-3. Anyone remember the title? Anyone have the notation? What time signature does he use?
