Our Take

Dave Brubeck's "Time Was" is a tantalising time warp back to the swinging sixties, where jazz ruled the airwaves and funky beats were king. This album is a funky fresh mix of classic Brubeck compositions and groovy new tunes that will have you bopping and jiving in no time.

Brubeck's signature piano playing is as smooth as a fine whiskey, effortlessly gliding through complex time signatures and intricate melodies with the grace and precision of a seasoned pro. The way he effortlessly melds together different styles and genres is a testament to his musical genius, creating a sound that is truly one-of-a-kind.

The rest of the band is equally impressive, with each member bringing their own unique flair to the table. The bass is deep and groovy, the drums are tight and snappy, and the horns are pure fire, adding a touch of sass and style to every track.

From the infectious swing of "Take Five" to the melodic beauty of "Blue Rondo a la Turk," Brubeck and his band never miss a beat, delivering a stellar performance that is sure to please jazz aficionados and music lovers alike. So kick back, pour yourself a glass of something nice, and let the sound of Brubeck take you on a musical journey through time. You won't be disappointed.
