  • Description

    Mid-price reissue of a 1961 concert from one of the all-time greats in jazz, Eric Dolphy. It was originally released as a two LP set in the late 70s and the CD edition on Enja has been unavailable for many years.

    Personnel: Eric Dolphy (aalto saxophone, bass clarinet), Benny Bailey (trumpet), Pepsi Auer (piano), George Joyner (bass), Buster Smith (drums)

    "Dolphy mostly stretching out on standards, coming up with very original statements on such songs as "Hot House," "When Lights Are Low," "Hi Fly," "I'll Remember April" and "God Bless the Child" (the latter taken as an unaccompanied bass clarinet solo), in addition to two brief originals. With trumpeter Benny Bailey helping out on half of the selections along with a strong rhythm section, [it's] the perfect introduction for listeners not familiar with Eric Dolphy's innovative style." - AllMusic
