Time Out

The album of the week is Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet.

1959 was a big year for jazz, with many classics recorded and released that year.  Time Out was one of those classic albums.

This was the first jazz album to sell a million copies, with Take Five being the first jazz single to sell a million copies as well.  The album peaked at #2 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart.

I could go on and on about the greatness of this album, but I will let the music speak for itself.  If you're one of those "I don't like jazz" people, download this, give it an honest listen, and get back to me.  If you appreciate music and somehow have missed this one, download it and thank me later.
