Time Will Tell is an album by pianist Paul Bley, bassist Barre Phillips, and saxophonist Evan Parker recorded in 1994 and released on the ECM label in 1995. Reception The Penguin Guide to Jazz selected this album as part of its suggested Core Collection. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 2½ stars stating "This CD contains a series of mostly thoughtful free improvisations featuring three of the giants of the idiom... Although the results overall are not classic, the music never fails to hold on to one's interest as the three musicians continually think and evolve together".
