Time OutTakes

Description

The official release of eight previously unreleased archive tracks from the album Time Out, which resulted from the legendary 1959 session of the DAVE BRUBECK quartet, is a significant event and also celebrates the centenary of the birth of the author of Take Five. Let’s remember: this album was harshly criticized upon its release by Downbeat critic IRA GITLER. Decades have passed, making this album completely essential for fans and a multitude of listeners around the globe. Celebrating a true masterpiece, the new versions of tracks that have become standards (a previously unreleased take of Blue Rondo à la Turk lasts two minutes longer than the version on Time Out) offer a new listening perspective “a bit like if the Mona Lisa suddenly smiled at us differently” (ETIENNE DORSAY, Choc Jazz Magazine).
