Traffic sucks, so why not start your morning off with some music? You provide the toast and we'll provide the jams.

Dave Brubeck has passed to that great jazz club in the sky. So we'll honor him today with something other than "Take Five," which, although fantastic, has been pounding the airwaves since Brubkeck's heart made its last 5/4 thump. He wrote and played other songs, and played beautifully in all of them; practically none shows off his genius better than "Blue Rondo a la Turk."
