Customer Rating:      Summary: The Album That Put Dave Brubeck On The Map Comment: Dave Brubeck Quartet's "Time Out" is a classic jazz recording and anyone who appreciates jazz needs this gem in their collection.
The year 1959 proved to a big year for jazz having produced many of the genre's most important releases like Miles Davis' "Kind Of Blue," Charles Mingus' "Mingus Ah Um," Bill Evans' "Portrait In Jazz," and John Coltrane's "Giant Steps." This year also proved that the Dave Brubeck Quartet were force to be reckoned with.
Employing odd time signatures and ethnic timbres not widely used in jazz at the time, "Time Out" proved to be a groundbreaking success. To Columbia Record's surprise "Time Out" spawned a hit single "Take Five" and it was ranked #2 on the Billboard charts.
All of the elements that made this group great are in place on "Time Out," but it is my strong opinion that they made plenty of records that were just as good as this one. I would challenge anyone who's interested in this quartet to explore his other work with Paul Desmond. You will quite surprised.
This is a classic album that is without a doubt recommended, not just by me, but the other 171 people who gave it 5-stars.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Time Out - timeless Comment: One of the great jazz albums of its time and for all time - playful mixed meters (take 5) and variations on 9 in Blue Rondo are inventive and lively.
Customer Rating:      Summary: My Favorite Comment: This has been my favorite Dave Brubeck album for a long time. I still have it on vinyl, although it it scratched, I would still listen to it. When I saw it on Amazon, I just had to have it to take with me in the car.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Brubeck "Take Five" Comment: Excellent CD of wonderful old Dave Brubeck jazz for old Dave Brubeck jazz fans . . .
Customer Rating:      Summary: time stand still Comment: what can i say about this album that has not already been said.this is by far and away,without a shadow of a doubt the greatest jazz album ever made.as you can hear from the opening track,blue rondo al a turk,with it's,9/8 time,which turns into 4/4 time,to the beautiful strange meadow lark,to the instantly recognizable,take five,which is in 5/4 time.with paul desmonds,smooth and refined playing on the alto saxaphone,and with joe morello,anchoring behind the drum kit.this is definately one for the ages.outstanding cd.
