greant music
the hissing a bit harsh on this one but considering tapes weren't as good back in 1956...i figure its fair game. the music itself is superb.


One of the most innovation studio sessions captured in transparent sound to treasure
One of the most innovative studio sessions in Eric Dolphy's musical career, this is a terrific album if you're willing to be challenged in your ideas around jazz. The other, in my opinion, is "Out to Lunch!" which HDTT has not yet been able to release (and I so wish they would). The improvisational creativity of this album is astonishing. The soundscapes are ever intriguing, ever surprising. Dolphy's experimental energy gives this entire album a unique place in his all-to-limited discography. And Dolphy's facility on flute, bass clarinet, and alto saxophone is astonishing. Losing this monstrously great talent at the age of 36 was such a tremendous loss. The sound quality is superb. Rich, highly detailed, tremendous frequency extension, excellent dynamics -- it is a terrific studio recording and HDTT's DSD256 transfers captures it all with a transparency to treasure.

Eric Dolphiy is an acquired taste even for extremely open minded jazz box
As for the transfer it is as good as it gets. Dolphy was a huge Influence on John Coltrane. His unusual choice of bass clarinet as his main instrument, puts him in a class of his own. Alone together duo with Richard Davis should stand a a pinnacle of collaborative empathy in a improvisational session.

AWESOME!!
Highly recommended. I also hope that HDTT will make Mingus-Dolphy partnership works in the near future. Thanks in advance.
