Artist: Eric Dolphy Title: Complete Memorial Album Sessions
Tracks: Burning Spear Music Matador Jitterbug Waltz Ironman Mandrake Alone Together Come Sunday Ode To C.P. Love Me

Details: This is the most complete edition released of these astounding sessions undertaken by Eric Dolphy between June And July 1963. A year later the innovative composer & multi-instrumentalist was dead. He chose several different approaches : an all-star nonet with Clifford Jordan Sonny Simmons Prince Lasha Bobby Hutcherson Richard Davis - bass; Eddie Kahn Woody Shaw & J. C. Moses; a quintet from the same pool; a series of duets with the incredible bassist Richard Davis; And an unaccompanied alto Sax solo. The music is astonishingly inventive. Dolphy is truly inspired And these tracks have become landmarks of modern jazz : "Burning Spear" "Music Matador" "Iron Man" "Mandrake" as well as his unique reading of standards Waller's "Jitterbug Waltz" Ellington's "Come Sunday" And the exquisite duet version of Arthur Schwartz's "Alone Together". An essential jazz record
