Overtime is an album by the Dave Holland Big Band that won the Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album in 2005. Recorded in 2002, the music centers on the four-movement "Monterey Suite", a piece commissioned by the Monterey Jazz Festival. The big band on this record is on the small side, at thirteen members. The rhythm section consists of vibraphone, bass, and drums, continuing the format established over many Dave Holland Quintet records. This is the first album to appear on Holland's label, Dare2, and the last of his releases to feature drummer Billy Kilson.
The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "This is an essential Holland date, it is exciting, colorful and wildly innovative", and the critic of The Guardian called it, "contemporary jazz big band playing at its very best."
All compositions by Dave Holland.
