"Take Five," the surprise radio hit from Time Out, would enter the record books as the first million-selling jazz instrumental single on the Billboard Hot 100, and "Blue Rondo à la Turk" would become an instant classic. This edition marks the 50th anniversary with an unprecedented presentation of music, images, insight and history, including the chance to hear the classic Brubeck Quartet in top form live at Newport, plus a companion DVD offering a fresh take on the making of this pioneering recording. The experimental meters of Brubeck's music set Time Out apart from the pack. But the appeal of this album--in 1959 and today--is less in the rules it broke, and more in the sheer sweep and effervescence and pure unadulterated fun of the music. For all his seriousness and ardor, Dave Brubeck had somehow recaptured a sense of childlike wonder in this project. And for that reason, the decades may pass and tastes may change, but it will always be the right time for Time Out. | | | Product Details: | | | Audio CD Release Date:

 A ClassicJul 18, 2010
What can I say? It's Brubeck! It's "Take Five"! They're what every other jazz musician and recording I've ever known want to be. A must-have in every collection.
Great BrubeckJul 06, 2010
We saw Brubeck (age 90) in concert a few weeks ago with the Boston POPS. Every music lover should have these recordings.
A great packageFeb 06, 2010
I purchased the vinyl version of "Time Out" in the sixties...classic stuff. The DVD of Brubeck talking about the ideas/influences behind the writing/arranging of the songs is excellent. I wanted it to be longer. Joe Morello was a big influence in my drumming style when I played as a teenager. It's all good stuff!

Genial!!!Dec 30, 2009
Recibí este disco el 24 de diciembre. No pudo haber mejor regalo!!! Ya todos conociamos el disco Time Out. Pero el segundo disco es simplemente sorprendente. Buena calidad de audio a 50 años de haberse grabado. El DVD no tiene mucho que ofrecer, pero para quien no conoce a Dave Brubeck puede resultar interesante.
Sin duda lo mejor del Box Set es el disco 2. Fué una excelente compra.
