Countdown: Time in Outer Space

by The Dave Brubeck Quartet

Countdown: Time in Outer Space cover art

Serving as the thematic follow-up to the massively successful 'Time Out', this Columbia Records release continues the quartet's exploration of complex, non-standard time signatures. 'Countdown: Time in Outer Space' explicitly tied its structural polyrhythmic experiments to the cultural backdrop of the American space program.
