Stuff I didn't know: Dave Brubeck was born in Concord in the East Bay, was the first modern jazz musician to make the cover of Time, and cancelled appearances where band members were unwelcome because of their race. I hadn't listened to "Take Five" for a couple of years; now I can't get it out of my head.
