Dave Brubeck's Take Five -- I have listened to about ten times in the last 24 hours.
That came up on my walk to the bus this morning! It remains one of my favorite pieces of music simply because of the mindset it draws me into. Brubeck's album, "Time Out," which that track is taken from, was an album I couldn't live without when I was preparing to come abroad again.
And David, you know I'd love that music as well.
I just read
Helter Skelter
