The Spotlight is On Dave Brubeck's Album Time Out 

Time Out

Amazon Price: $7.97 (as of 07/26/2008)

1959 saw the release of a number of Jazz albums that would become classics. Along with Dave Brubeck's "Time Out" the seminal Jazz album from Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" was also released.

Brubeck on the piano was joined by alto saxophonist Paul Desmond, drummer Joe Morrello and bassist Gene Wright. It was Paul Desmond who wrote the albums most recognized tune "Take Five."

This albums lends itself to Jazz lovers and people who could care less about Jazz. Along with "Kind of Blue" this is an album that fits nicely into every music lovers library. I high recommend it to people new to Jazz and to anyone looking for some classic American music.
