     Discovered during the research for several books marking Dave      
     Brubeck's centennial celebration, Time Outtakes features           
     never-before-released songs recorded during the original sessions  
     for the pianist's landmark 1959 album Time Out. This is Brubeck's  
     classic quartet featuring alto saxophonist Paul Desmond, bassist   
     Eugene Wright, and drummer Joe Morello. While there have been      
     several special edition versions of Time Out released over the     
     years, none have included these original studio recordings from    
     the 1959 sessions. One of the most influential and commercially    
     successful jazz albums in history, Time Out is largely considered  
     a perfect album, a showcase for Brubeck's innovative use of time   
     signatures, as well as rhythms and melodies borrowed from Eastern  
     and African musical traditions. At the center of the album was     
     "Take Five." A kinetic 5/4 masterpiece written by Desmond, the     
     song became an instant classic, dichotomously building mainstream  
     interest in world rhythms while also pushing jazz musicians to     
     embrace yet more wide-ranging and intellectual sounds. What's      
     particularly compelling about these recordings is just how         
     different they are from the ones that ended up on the final        
     album. "Take Five" itself is much faster than the classic          
     version, starting out with a more spare drum pattern and           
     featuring a more avant-garde leaning solo from Desmond. In         
     keeping with the song's original purpose as a showcase for         
     Morello's drumming, here the band drops out when he starts his     
     solo. Unmoored from Brubeck's piano vamp, he plays with the        
     groove, ably turning the rhythm inside out with a mix of           
     percussion sounds before inviting the band back. Equally           
     eye-opening is "Blue Rondo a La Turk," which, while not that       
     dissimilar to the classic version, is in some ways superior,       
     featuring an even more organically supple groove and expansively   
     bluesy solo from Desmond. Along with alternate takes, we get       
     several songs not included on the original album, including the    
     off-the-cuff "Watusi Jam" and the spritely "I'm in a Dancing       
     Mood." While certainly a fascinating window into the development   
     of a jazz classic, Time Outtakes is also just a superb listen.
