Notes & Personnel Info |  | Personnel: Eric Dolphy, Juan Amalbert, Gene Casey, Bill Ellington, Charlie Simons, Manny Ramos. | | Recorded in August 1960. | | Personnel: Eric Dolphy (flute, clarinet, bass clarinet, alto saxophone); Juan Amalbert (congas); Gene Casey (piano); Charlie Simons (vibraphone); Manuel Ramos (drums, timbales). | | Liner Note Author: Joe Goldberg. | | Recording information: Englewood Cliffs, NJ (08/19/1960). | | How this session got set up we may never know. The mainstream, Latin-oriented, mellow bebop of the Latin Jazz Quintet meets the iconoclastic Eric Dolphy, one of the first wave of 1960s avant-jazz players--and things work out very nicely for all concerned. | | Dolphy's saxophone, usually one of the most vocalized horn sounds of the '60s, is slightly restrained here. But his flute playing is always extremely lyrical even at its most abstract, and he fits in well with the Quintet's soul-jazz groove on "Sunday Go Meetin'." "Blues in 6/8" is another soul-jazz mid-tempo cooker, and Dolphy, indulging in some straight-ahead blues playing, sounds as if he's having a swell time. Gene Casey plays a direct, lyrical, sparkling piano in the vein of Horace Silver, and the percussionists keep everything percolating steadily throughout. |
