@Deb1Express Never went away. Just went dark. “X” is a hellscape, but it’s an addictive hellscape. Haven’t posted much, just lurked. Hope you’re doing well.

On this day in 1959, the Dave Brubeck Quartet recorded “Take Five”

Two years later it became a surprise hit and the biggest-selling jazz single ever.

Revived since in numerous movie and television soundtracks, the piece still receives significant radio airplay. The single was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1996.

.@NoLayingUp Re: the TIO debate, how about for every grandstand structure on every hole, the Tour creates a mandatory drop zone in a location that creates a really hard approach to the hole (equiv. 1/2-stroke penalty). DZs could even change from day to day based on hole location.

As the lush sounds of “Satin Doll” by the Gerry Mulligan Tentet fill the room, Art Farmer’s solo delicately dances through the music, cherry-picking each note with his unique finesse
