N.E.S.J.O. - "Take Five" (P.Desmond-D.Brubeck) @ Antico Teatro Arrigoni, San Vito al Tagliamento - PN - Italy, in march 2013. Arrangment by Max Ravanello.
Brubeck was my introduction to Jazz. Take Five was the song. I've never heard it as an orchestral piece before. Whoever the arranger is, he did a marvelous job.

What a beautiful song!
Saw all the late 70’s - early 80’s ska and reggae greats!
I don’t understand how anyone could give this a thumbs down! 🤦🏻♂️
Peace and Love ❤️

Won't you stop and take
A little time out with me
Just take five
Stop your busy day
And take the time out
To see if I'm alive
Though I'm going out of my way
Just so I can pass by each day
Not a single word do we say
It's a pantomime and not a play
Still, I know our eyes often meet
I feel tingles down to my feet
When you smile, that's much too discreet
Sends me on my way
Wouldn't it be better
Not to be so polite
You could offer a light
Start a little conversation now
It's alright, just take five
Just take five

Val Bennett did the original Reggae version of this in 68 and has been done by countless other Ska and Reggae groups!

Fluid and very tight arrangements amazing the organ sound is off the chart. The best cover yet bar none !!!!

Слушаю десятый раз и ещё раз убеждаюсь, что вещь сыграна на высочайшем профессиональном уровне, аранжировка просто бомба.

You aint jazz til you've covered this song.
Dave Brubeck would be proud!

¡Que estilo, que voz, que hermosa pieza de arte han escuchado mis oídos! ¡Apenas para apaciguar en esta cuarentena!
Gracias por existir.

La canción fué escrita por Paul Desmond, sax del cuarteto grupo de Dave Brubeck, me encanta esta versión, con reminisencia de time de Pink Floyd y mucho swing skato

I wasn't sure what to expect with this, but you all did it beautifully. It left me smiling. The vocals were a great touch.

Desde que conocí esta orquesta y esta versión tan rica, que me eriza la piel al grado de inundar mis ojos... Puedo decir que se ha convertido en MI CANCIÓN FAVORITA.

I grew up listening to Brubeck.
Get over it. Listen.
This is fresh.

everyone commenting about how it's not a 5/4. It's a nice coverable jazz standard. It does not have to keep the original beat to be good.

The thing about Jazz is it allows for variations like this. Very enjoyable

OMFG! I loved the original! Love Ska! Am gobsmacked by this! Thank you so much!
And Dave B has such a great character and backstory, so anything that draws positive attention to him is fab too!

Your band makes some of the most beautiful music on the face of the earth! The reggae undertone is BRINGING THE JAZZ BACK into relevance in music again!
