Notes
The album was intended as an experiment using musical styles Brubeck discovered abroad while on a United States Department of State sponsored tour of Eurasia, such as when he observed in Turkey a group of street musicians performing a traditional Turkish folk song that was played in 9/8 time, a rare meter for Western music. Columbia president Goddard Lieberson took a chance to underwrite and release Time Out. It received negative reviews by critics upon its release, but despite this, it became one of the best-known and biggest-selling jazz albums, charting highly on the popular albums chart when 50,000 units sold for a jazz album was impressive. It consequently produced a Top 40 hit single in "Take Five", composed by Paul Desmond, and the one track not written by Dave Brubeck. The cover art is just as important as the LP itself featuring specific artwork created by S. Neil Fujita best known for his covers for CBS Records, which introduced abstract art to jazz LP packaging.

Mine is in PVC jacket, not shrink. 2024, 180g, black -
Edited 6 days agoThis one, aside from sounding amazing, actually has a beautiful transparent gold disc with an embossed cover art on the CD face. Nice!
-
Edited one month agoIn reference to variant 1. Not sure why Larry Keyes would put his name on this stuff, but don't bother, it sounds terrible. And so in reference to variant 2, this second variant sounds much better than the 1st, and it is the original mix, but it still lacks significantly due to noise reduction and who knows what else.
-
A NM- copy of this repress, played back with a true mono cart such as my A-T 33, will yield spectacular results. Startling clarity, dynamics and punch to this timeless classic.
-
Purchased on a whim. I was highly suspicious of this as it looked kind weird having an alternative cover design.
Well colour me wrong, it' sounds absolutely stunning and the Brown Marbel wax is super dope.
Highly Recommend -

This is a LP 1st Stereo pressing from from 1963, with an excellent sound! -

I have had Canadian 2-eye, US 2-eye, and later red label before. This one clearly outperforms all others. More details, more slam and weight, better clarity in bass area I can actually “see”the recording space. It’s an amazing experience with this copy. -
Edited one month agoIsn't this essentially the same 1967 SM pressing found here but with an S on the back bottom right instead of a 5, and no Columbia sticker in the upper left of the cover? As the two-eyed labels stopped being used in 1970, I would guess this is the same 1967 pressing.

Meine klingt erstaunlich gut, besser als manche Edelausgabe. Ich habe sie einmal gewaschen mit der guten, alten Knosti danach der reinste Genuss…absolut zu
empfehlen, zumal für kleines Geld! 👍
