The Dave Brubeck Quartet

David Warren Brubeck (; December 6, 1920 – December 5, 2012) was an American jazz pianist and composer. Often regarded as a foremost exponent of cool jazz, Brubeck's work is characterized by unusual time signatures and superimposing contrasting rhythms, meters, and tonalities. Born in Concord, California, Brubeck was drafted into the US Army, but was spared from combat service when a Red Cross show he had played at became a hit. Within the US Army, Brubeck formed one of the first racially diverse bands. In 1951, Brubeck formed the Dave Brubeck Quartet, which kept its name despite shifting personnel. The most successful—and prolific—lineup of the quartet was the one between 1958 and 1968. This lineup, in addition to Brubeck, featured saxophonist Paul Desmond, … more »

The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see, 
For the moon refused to shine. 
Couple sitting underneath a willow tree, 
For love they did pine, 
Little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness 
So she said, "I guess I'll go." 
Boy began to sigh, looked up at the sky, 
Told the moon his little tale of woe: 

"oh, shine on, shine on harvest moon up in the sky. 
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or July 
Snowtime ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon, 
So shine on, shine on harvest moon, for me and my gal!" 

I can't see why a boy should sigh, 
When by his side is the girl he loves so true, 
All he has to say is: 
"Won't you be my bride, 
For I love you, 
Why should I be telling you this secret, 
When I know that you can guess?," 
Harvest moon will smile, 
Shine on all the while, 
If the little girl should answer "yes." 

"Oh, shine on, shine on harvest moon up in the sky. 
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or July 
Snowtime ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon 
So shine on, shine on harvest moon - for me and my gal !"
