Time Speaks

Time Speaks, subtitled Dedicated to the Memory of Clifford Brown, is an album by saxophonist/composer Benny Golson that was recorded in 1982 and released on the Japanese Baystate label the following year. The album features trumpeters Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw performing tunes associated with, or inspired by, Clifford Brown and was reissued on the Dutch Timeless label in 1984.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow said "This set was chiefly notable for teaming together for the first time trumpeters Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw. Ostensibly a tribute to Clifford Brown, the sextet date only has two songs actually played by Brown. No matter; it is for the Hubbard-Shaw matchup that this straight-ahead outing is mostly recommended, as the two trumpeters provide most of the fireworks".
