Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com essential recording
Boasting the first jazz instrumental to sell a million copies, the Paul Desmond-penned "Take Five," Time Out captures the celebrated jazz quartet at the height of both its popularity and its powers. Recorded in 1959, the album combines superb performances by pianist Brubeck, alto saxophonist Desmond, drummer Joe Morrello and bassist Gene Wright. Along with "Take Five," the album features another one of the group's signature compositions, "Blue Rondo a la Turk." Though influenced by the West Coast-cool school, Brubeck's greatest interest and contribution to jazz was the use of irregular meters in composition, which he did with great flair. Much of the band's appeal is due to Desmond, whose airy tone and fluid attack often carried the band's already strong performances to another level. Together, he and Brubeck proved one of the most potent pairings of the era. --Fred Goodman

5 out of 5 stars Time Out - timeless   November 17, 2008
Anne Simone (Cambridge, MA)
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.


5 out of 5 stars My Favorite   October 30, 2008
Sylki (New York, NY USA)
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.

Paul Divito (salem,ma,usa.)
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.
