Sad news. I know some jazzers who consider his playing cold and "too classical" but my dad played the Time Out album a lot when I was a kid, it was my intro to jazz.
"Take Five" was actually written by Paul Desmond, Brubeck's brilliant saxophonist; Brubeck wrote the rest of _Time Out_. The first track on the album is "Blue Rondo a la Turk":

RIP, Mr. Brubeck.
