Eddie Blackwell was a great underrated drummer! Great feel, inventive and swings.

Hendrick Otto

understated, at least. you hear that NOLA street band background where he started.

What’s fantastic about Dolphy’s improvising is that he uses the upper harmonic tones of the notes as both an equal part of the line as well as doing harmonic substitutions on them. He’s a tonal improviser whose harmonic radar is so acute he fit in well with Ornette (see the album Free Jazz).

That rhythm section- Waldron and Blackwell just fit. Both Dolphy and Little really perfect one-offs, influential as they were, I guess as all the greats are. Such energy!

I knew right away this was one of the greatest concerts ever recorded but took me decades to contain and appreciate the sum of the whole even more as in books should be written about these records and musicians

This is one of the coolest ever album sleeves!
Eric and Booker!
I'm looking for an original mint condition copy to put in a album frame!

Heard this 40 years ago for the first time and still it is something to make you happy. Piano out of tune, horns also slightly, but what a great performance!

Consider how YOUNG these players were when they put these sounds down. I'm 33 but booker little was like a young young man here. He died at 23, twenty-three! Dolphy was only a couple years older than my current age when he passed. My Goodness, What have I done with my life??

Quote by ERIC DOLPHY ~ "Music is like the wind. You don't know where it comes from and you don't where it went.
But once you hit that note, it's over with.
So don't put on some ear phones and start trying to analyze everything that you play cause it's over with.
It's gone."

A lot of people have said that Eric Dolphy sounds awful, he’s not at all awful, he’s great! Dolphy was a very good multireedist. I particularly love his bass clarinet.

You know, it frustrates me that when The John Coltrane Quintet performed and was recorded at the Village Vanguard in November,1961, Coltrane was prohibited recording both "Naima" and "My Favorite Things" because those two pieces were recorded and released by Coltrane on the Atlantic label.
As a result, we were deprived of listening to Eric Dolphy play Flute on "My Favorite Things" and Bass Clarinet on "Naima".
What I've never understood is why John Coltrane didn't give Dolphy a chance to solo, on Flute, on Greensleeves which was similar in style as "My Favorite Things". It was strictly a Quartet performance.

Liam Watson

@raul macias Coltrane was allowed to play Naima because it was his own song. He also recorded it on his Blue World album which was on Impulse. My Favourite Things was not his song so he couldn’t play it anywhere. Besides I don’t care for soprano Coltrane.

@Liam Watson
You know, The John Coltrane Quintet did play and record "Naima" at The Village Vanguard but the melody was altered due to contractual reasons.
In the whole John Coltrane at The Village Vanguard Box set, there is not one performance of Eric Dolphy on Flute!

Liam Watson

@raul macias Imagine having to alter the melody of your own song if you played live. Would people recognize it?

@raul macias there are a couple recordings of Coltrane playing My Favorite Things in Europe with Dolphy on flute. they're as good as you would think.

No it's not death because it's inevitable and it will happen to everybody sooner or later.
But yes, I fear God. I love God."
