Yes! This rendition is very good! Bruebeck is BEST. The Chet Adkins version is 2nd best ( it is on the RP Playlist). Thanx RP!
Ya know, this is nice. I hope you are all enjoying it. : )

Of course I understand the skill! The skill doesn't make it good to listen to. The original on the other hand SOUNDS much better. And the SKILL to WRITE it in the first place!!!

Nice cover! Composed by Paul Desmond . Chet Atkins does a superb version of this, also. Chet's version is the 2nd best that I have ever heard! It is on the RP playlist. Of course, Brubeck & Desmond do it best!! Check out Chet's version, it is well worth it!! Thanx RP!
More like take 10 am I right?
I'm a pianist and the guy playing piano is NOT hitting the pulse. It sounds like a MIDI piano anyway, which doesn't help.
Meh. Catchy, but pales in comparison.
If you gonna cover standards, better be ready for such comparisons

Agree these are very capable musicians who applied their ample skills to this piece. But I question the argument of "well, this was very difficult and they played it amazingly well". You never hear that argument applied to art (e.g. we should appreciate that painting because the technical work is amazingly well done!). It may be, but the painting may still lose us. I suspect some listeners are missing the joy, the whimsy, the playfulness of the original, while recognizing it is indeed very well played.

I just up the rating 1 point because of their band name
This is a really nice cover.
They could have 'cheesed it up". But they don't.
And it's live.

This is a perfectly acceptable cover, but I don't understand why it deserves to supercede the orginal here on RP -- and why it is played so often.
this song reminds me of the time my gramma taught me how they make string cheese..she unwrapped five kraft singles put them all in her mouth and squeezed the cheese out onto my sammich from between her missing teeth..good times,thank you gramma and the string cheese incident too i guess.

I agree with your sentiment; what's the point of doing a cover and wanting it to be "close to" the original, unless you were specifically told to do so? It's good version of a song which lends itself to many interpretations. However, Dave Brubeck did not write this tune; it was composed by the saxophonist, Paul Desmond.

Don't know why, but I always associated this band Wisconsin.
But Wiki says they are from Colorado.

Keep these amazing covers coming RP. A 9er at my house of blues.
Funny how this emphasizes my love for the original. That doesn' always happen. Something about this feels "smooth jazz." It would be okay on the Cracker Barrell sound system. But all respect to the brilliant musicians.
Is that bongo's I hear in the back-ground? 
Otherwise not bad. Not great but not "get 'er outta here" bad.

Thanks RP for the distraction you provide in March 2020. I'm fortunate enough to be able to work from home in my lovely picture framing studio. Still have 4 weeks worth of work to complete before it potentially dries up. Radio Paradise plays along in the background, giving me some consulation to these troubled times.
thanks for taking me away from today bill

Eh, the album cover, the band's web site and Wikipedia all list the band's name as "The String Cheese Incident", not just "String Cheese Incident".
Just sayin'.
No need to confuse them with some ordinary run of the mill common SCI, even if there might be dozens of them.
Nice cover version BTW.

I liked when they were covering Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues around 2000 like at Horning's Hideout for incidence -

After listening to this classic jazz track on this grey, wet and soggy winter day in the Pacific Northwest, I felt that going from a 5 to 7 was just ticket. Great musix for getting your head of your ass...

I watched them when the opened for Dylan. I wish they would have played this that day.
I was at that show too! June 2000 as I recall. Phil Lesh and STI were there, and I think Bob even did "Things Have Changed" which had just come out (and even got some radio play) - weird, I'm making a comment on a STI song and seem to have more to say about Bob Dylan than STI.
STI was pretty cool, they were new to me and reminded me of Phish or GD even (i.e. a 'jam band') with the amount of improv involved. And of course this was all before 9/11 - I remember those early 2000s well, it was the end of the Clinton era, just before the shrub (that was/is my nickname for GW Bush) "won" the election, etc. Text messaging was a pain in the ass still if you even had a phone that could do that.
Music really does help capture the memories doesn't it?
Rock on RPsters!
Simply awesome!!

Whole-heartedly agree with the requests for more SCI on RP. For instance, Black Clouds from this same live CD is absolutely out-of-this-world goodness. But sooooooo much to choose from with these guys! Let's have a few!
A la Dave Brubeck! It's a 5 because it's not Brubeck...ok...> 8 for musicianship.

SCI deserve special kudos for breaking right out of the big biz paranoia about IP piracy, embracing and supporting their pirates and joyously giving it all away on their web site.
More of their work deserves air time here.
Oh and for those who want Brubeck's version to be the only version -- his was an arrangement -- these guys're jammin' !

I doubt not for one mimute Dave would have decried this rendition and I found it a brave thing to do with such a well known number. And for the pessemists Dave Brubeck wrote this number for piano.

Everybody in my mushrooming multitude of churches loves this music...
Brubeck's Take Five was the first LP I ever bought (still have it today), and one of my all-time favorites.
That said, I really like this take-off on the signature tune...

Like you been a jazz fan for years, both modern and classical. Unlike you, it appears, also a big bluegrass fan - heck I like just about any improv instrumental music. At one point in college was DJ of two shows, one bluegrass, one jazz and see a lot of crossover between the two.

After listening to a full 30 seconds I hated this, wanting Brubeck's version back.
But after listening to the whole this is really good. A great alternative to the original.
