When I was a teenager I had every one of the Dave Brubeck quartet's albums.

I think Naudo plays Take Five better than Paul Desmond did on sax...

That is high praise and I think their styles are markedly similar if one can even parse such a thing when they are entirely different animals.

What I like is how casual he is about it. He seems to purposely do things out of alignment sometimes just to see if anyone is paying attention, and of course, there is the de riquer humility that is required with anyone of ability who knows where it comes from.

I had the first late-night jazz show of any kind on Maui... Sunday nights for 3 hours. I forget what it was called; A Taste of Jazz with Les Williams or something like that on KMVI. I only did laid back; Joe Sample, early Miles and lots of the players from further back.

Naudo has a relaxed vibe that sets me in a good mood. I started listening just now and hit on this one:

My wife and I were on Maui in 1988. My lasting memory is of that holiday is snorkeling on Punalau Beach. The wind and current were tretcherous and I before I new it I was way too far from the beach. I'm not a great swimmer and for a few minutes I honestly thought I was going to be swept away and perish. I swam with all my might and experienced true gratitude when I finally crawled onto terra firma... : )
