Truth be told Time Out was written by Paul Desmond. This doesn't cheapen Dave's contribution to jazz,Dave was an ambassador of sorts who traveled the world spreading the sounds of the genre he loved. He was a gentle,gracious soul whom opened many a door for others to ply their songs. He was upscale,a cut above and his volumes of work will stand the test of time.
I remember when I reveived my Mosiac vinyl box set of Paul Desmond and realized the sound of his sax was just as much a part of Dave's music as his piano. This box set is great and furthers the belief in my opinion that both Dave and Paul have been overlooked because they made it look easy.
