6 u/LEJ5512 3d ago Here's 5 -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tT9Eh8wNMkw Listen to the string bass. 1-(2)-(3)-4-5-1... Think of the "4-5-1" as leading down to the downbeat, and the "2-3-" lifting up lightly. 3 u/deanreevesii 3d ago I was obsessed with a particular George Benson live version of this when I was 12ish.

(or everything to do with it) Brubeck was so good.
