Artist: Dave Brubeck
Author: Dave Brubeck
Label: Columbia
Year: 1959
On Time Out, an lp filled with unorthodox rhythm patterns: Take Five in 5/4 and this one in 9/8 has a Bulgarian folk origin. Bela Bartok used it in Six Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm. Mozart's Rondo Alla Turca is something completely different, covered by Kenny Ball and Ekseption.
Covers:
Claude Nougaro [as A bout de souffle]
Nice [as Rondo]
Emerson, Lake & Palmer [on the Isle of Wight, their first show ever]
Al Jarreau [as Round, Round, Round with own lyrics]
Catch 22 [as Blue Rondo]
B.B. King [Live In Nice]
After the (unexpected) success of Time Out, Dave Brubeck came up with the sequel Time Further Out, again with deviant rhythms and again with a hit: Unsquare Dance in 7/4; covered by Don Ellis as Pussy Wiggle Stomp.
