Description

|
|
|
One night in 1961 during a two-week engagement in New York produced enough music of lasting merit for three albums. Eric Dolphy died in 1964, after establishing himself as an unforgettable reedman. Here his alto saxophone and bass clarinet and Little's trumpet explore three originals: "The Prophet," "Bee Vamp" by Booker Little, and "Fire Waltz" by Mal Waldron. It's time caught in a bottle—music for the ages. "Exceptional…. Perhaps the finest thing of all is Dolphy's own 'The Prophet' … quite clearly an autobiographical piece, an insight into Dolphy's own quicksilver personality and forward-looking intelligence."—Penguin Guide "After having left the ensemble of Charles Mingus and upon working with John Coltrane, Eric Dolphy formed a short-lived but potent quintet with trumpeter Booker Little…. [which] became legendary over the years … and developed into a role model for all progressive jazz combos to come…. 'Fire Waltz' demonstrates perfectly how the bonfire burns from inside the soul of these five brilliant provocateurs."—All Music Guide
