Description:

Eric Dolphy, one of the Modern Jazz Giants, was unique in his musical outlook. His improvisations with avant-garde elements reminiscent of free jazz, lyrical flute playing, and unique sound on the bass clarinet have yet to be surpassed by any other musician. This live album was recorded in Paris 18 days before Eric Dolphy's sudden death. The concert was recorded and broadcast at Le Chacque Pêche Club in Paris for a program on the French radio station France Musique. This release is a remastered version of the audio master used for the broadcast. Featuring Donald Byrd (tp) and Nathan Davis (ts), the live performance is a long-awaited release, as it is hard to believe that he died suddenly 18 days later.Imported domestic edition Eric Dolphy (sax, bscl, fl)Donald Byrd (tp)Nathan Davis (sax)Jack DeVal (p)Jack Hess (b)Franco Manzecki (ds)Jackie Bamboo (perc)
