Dave Brubeck Quartet, "Take Five"

If my memory serves me correctly (which it only does a fraction of the time), this song was intended to be a drum solo; fortunately, that's pretty heavily featured in this video. But the song is probably better known for the saxophone melody, accompanied by the piano.

Having said all that, this video makes me want to (a) drink Old Fashioneds until I'm silly drunk and (b) be a professional percussionist.
