Customer Reviews:

WOW!!.......2006-04-05

This may be and probably is the best piece of music that I have ever bought! The interactions between the players and the precision while yet seemingly spontaneous is remarkable! I find the changes in tempo and the non repetitious drum beats refreshing.

Super Big Band Album!!!.......2006-04-01

This is the best big band CD I've heard in quite some time!. The brass section is outstanding and Dave on Bass and Billy Kilson on Drums really keep the music moving! My highest recommendation for any jazz aficionado!

The jazz band directors in the middle and high schools should get these arrangements and add these to their repertoire.

Disappointing ..........2006-02-02

I'm a jazz fan and trombone player, and I've enjoyed most all of Dave Holland's recordings since his involvement with Robin Eubanks. Particularly good were the recent Extended Play with a small group, and What Goes Around with a big band. So I actually hunted down this recording, and was looking forward to it.

What a disappointment. Some of the playing is top notch, especially Billy Kilson and Robin Eubanks, but the writing is unmemorable and overwrought, and the band's ensemble work never seems to catch fire. Recommended for drum fans (Kilson is an amazing player) but for anyone else looking for a modern big band recording, I'd advise checking out Maria Schneider, Ernie Krivda, or Bob Mintzer instead.

basie and beyond.......2005-09-07

having heard live mingus, basie, ellington, and a bit jaded about jazz these days...many listeners, that is, of 'that generation' are content staying home listening to old record collections. surprisingly, holland's overtime is the real deal, what big band jazz is about. the cd dragged some on the eubank selection.but overall the sound reaches toward doc severinsen's big band, which isn't bad.

delighted.......2005-08-22

Listening to Overtime by Dave Holland places me in a very good space. The playing, material and quality of recording are all of the highest order; which still falls short of explaining the incredible delight this cd yields. Theres a magical quality to a lot of the cd's released on the ECM label and this one is no exception. Highly recommended
