Score

An experiment in unusual time signatures that became an unlikely smash, led by the 5/4 'Take Five'. Cool, accessible and hugely popular. A perfect jazz starter record. They make our lists once — and it counts.

On vinyl: Original mono pressings from this era are sought-after; a quality reissue is the practical choice for most listeners.
