Time Further Out: Miro Reflections by The Dave Brubeck Quartet extends the pianist’s exploration of unusual time signatures, building on the rhythmic inventiveness that made "Unsquare Dance" a standout. The album’s blend of cool jazz with precise swing and acoustic interplay highlights Brubeck’s penchant for focused listening, inviting you into a world where tracks like "It's A Raggy Waltz" and "Maori Blues" reveal subtle shifts beneath the surface. With Paul Desmond’s alto saxophone and Joe Morello’s drumming rounding out the quartet, the music balances complexity and accessibility without ever sounding like it’s trying too hard—proof that math can indeed groove. This 1961 pressing delivers the sessions on vinyl with a clarity that suits the album’s clean, articulate style. The near-mint condition ensures minimal visual distraction and lets you appreciate the nuances in the piano-led ensemble without fuss. If your collection appreciates jazz where every note counts, this record offers a solid, well-preserved example from a period when Brubeck’s quartet was sharpening its distinctive voice—no need to unsquare your expectations here.
