Time Waits, also known as The Amazing Bud Powell, Vol. 4, is a studio album by American jazz pianist Bud Powell recorded at Van Gelder Studio on May 24, 1958, with rhythm section Sam Jones and Philly Joe Jones and released on Blue Note later that year.
Background The title track, a version of the Mexican popular song "Duerme", was recorded by Powell in 1954 for Verve, and in 1956 for RCA, under its original English-language title "Time Was".
The album was remastered in 1999 by Rudy Van Gelder and re-issued as part of Blue Note's RVG Edition series.
Reception Billboard praised the album, noting, "Bud Powell is still one of the best of the hard-playing pianists."
