Out There + Looking Ahead
Eric Dolphy’s complete original album Out There (New Jazz NJLP8252), his second LP as a leader after Outward Bound.
The instrumentation featured here is unusual, with Dolphy playing in a quartet format with Ron Carter on cello, George Duvivier on bass, and Roy Haynes on drums.
As a bonus, alto saxophonist and flutist Ken McIntyre’s complete LP Looking Ahead (New Jazz NJLP8247), which was recorded in a quintet format less than two months before Out There (Dolphy is the only other horn player featured on the date).
This CD contains Eric Dolphy’s second LP as a leader, titled Out There. It was taped in 1960, the same year that he recorded his debut LP, Outward Bound. Although these were his first recordings as a leader, Dolphy was already a veteran performer with considerable recording experience. The instrumentation used on Out There (New Jazz NJLP8252) is quite unusual, with Dolphy playing in a quartet format with Ron Carter on cello, George Duvivier on bass, and Roy Haynes on drums. As a bonus, we have added alto saxophonist and flutist Makanda Ken McIntyre’s complete LP Looking Ahead (New Jazz NJLP8247), a quintet album recorded less than two months prior to Out There, which features Dolphy as the only other horn.
