I want to identify and use a very basic kind of font, Times Roman. I
have been plowing though all the fonts in context-minimal but I
don't find a tfm file to meet my need, not ptm, not utm, not
nimbus.
The 8r-base.map lists several good candidates but they are not in
the minimals distro AFAICT. do I need to copy them over (pfb afm
and tfm) from my texlive distro? Or have the names been changed
in some esoteric way?

ConTeXt minimals come with TeX Gyre fonts that provide a Times clone
called Termes. If you are using the ConTeXt method of loading fonts, then
you do not have to change anything. In MkII
\usetypescript[times][texnansi]ext
\input knuth
\stoptext
\setupbodyfont[times]
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext
gives you TeXGyre Termes.
