Dave Brubeck - For All Time

[bebopbob]

I just read that Columbia/Legacy will be issuing a 5 CD box set in September called "For All Time" which will consist of the five Brubeck "Time" LPS:

Time Out -no additional tracks

Time Further Out

Time Changes - first time on CD

Countdown-Time In Outter Space- first time on CD

Time In- first US CD release

Does anyone know if these will be available individually or must we have to buy the 5CD set just to obtain the Countdown and Time Changes material previously unavailable on CD?

I don't have any inside info, but considering recent Columbia/Sony reissues (i.e. the Armstrong Hot Fives, Miles at the Blackhawk), it seems likely.

Alternatively, it might be like the Mingus box where all three CDs (to the best of my knowledge) were available singly, although the Alt Takes disc may have come out after a bit, and with a limited life.

I've really neglected Brubeck. This seems like a nice opportunity to jump in and check him out.

So, does anybody have any idea when this is coming out?

Where can I pre-Order?

I recently asked about this box in another thread in the Box Sets category. Apparently it seems to be pushed back to March, as is typical of Sony/Legacy

Thanks for the input guys. I guess I'll just have to wait 'til springtime.

IMHO, Dave Brubeck is one of the most creative musicians in jazz history, regardless of how one feels about his pianio playing.

I've had a promo box of this set for a few months now. It looks to be just the five albums gathered together under one roof. The last three albums are new to CD, with only a couple of bonus tracks added. "Time Out" uses the same HDCD master as the single disc version. It sounds great! I would expect Sony to release the "new" discs individually at some point, but don't know for sure when. Yes, this set has been delayed - my box has printing on it saying that it's to be released in October, 2003.

[Bright Moments]

so where can you get one of them there "promo boxes"?

[RDK]

Found it in a used CD store a few months back.

I actually saw a second copy more recently and was gonna pick it up for a guy, but when i went back it was gone.

[Bright Moments]

Wow, that was a lucky find!
