Time Out
(1959)
more music like this
by
Dave Brubeck Quartet
Dave Brubeck's defining masterpiece, Time Out is one of the most rhythmically innovative albums in jazz history, the first to consciously explore time signatures outside of the standard 4/4 beat or 3/4 waltz time. It was a risky move -- Brubeck's record company wasn't keen on releasing such an arty project, and many critics initially roasted him ...

Jazz at Oberlin

by
Dave Brubeck Quartet
Although a touch underrated, Jazz at Oberlin is one of the early Dave Brubeck classic recordings. The interplay between the pianist-leader and altoist Paul Desmond on "Perdido" borders on the miraculous, and their renditions of "The Way You Look Tonight," "How High the Moon" and "Stardust" are quite memorable. Brubeck's piano playing on "These ...

This CD brings back a near-classic (one of many from this period) by the Dave Brubeck Quartet. Drummer Joe Dodge had just joined the group and he joins with bassist Ron Crotty in laying down a solid and subtle foundation. However the real action takes place up front with pianist Dave Brubeck and altoist Paul Desmond. Their individual solos are ...

Although just shy of 80 at the time of the two studio sessions which make up this CD, Dave Brubeck still has the drive that he had some 40 years earlier, both as a performer and composer.

West Coast Jazz Box: An Anthology of California Jazz

This is, to be sure, a dangerous title for an album whose scope has been narrowed to about 15 years in the middle of the 20th century. Yet this four-CD box tries admirably to explode the old clichés about West Coast jazz, emphasizing specific coteries of Southern Californian and Bay Area musicians (with a few visitors from the Big Apple) yet ...

Twenty years' worth of recordings made at the Montreal Jazz Festival during the '80s and '90s amounts to a decidedly mixed bag on the Montreal Jazz Festival box set. The four discs are divided thematically (sort of) into blues, vocals, traditional jazz, and non-traditional jazz (i.e., fusion). All That Jazz is the most successful of the four discs ...

The stockpile of unreleased recordings by Dave Brubeck grew during the 1990s, as Telarc would plan CDs and then change its mind about the order in which to release various titles by the veteran pianist. So this two-CD set is by no means a compilation of leftover material, but some of his finest work during that decade. The first disc consists of ...
