• The complete, long unavailable concert by Charles Mingus and Eric Dolphy at the Salle Wagram, in Paris - for the first time ever on a single collection. The concert started as a sextet, but after the first number trumpeter Johnny Coles collapsed due to a stomach ulcer and the performance continued as a quintet. This concert must not be confused with that of the Theatre des Champs-Élysées, recorded the following day.
• As an added bonus, there are two complete sets (6 tracks) by the Chico Hamilton Quintet with Dolphy at Newport ’58, including an extended previously unissued version of "Pottsville U.S.A." on which Dolphy plays a long solo on alto sax.
• Personnel : Charles Mingus, bass & conductor; Eric Dolphy, alto sax, flute & bass clarinet; Clifford Jordan, tenor sax; Johnny Coles, trumpet (on “So Long, Eric” only); Jaki Byard, piano; Dannie Richmond, drums - Salle Wagram, Paris, France, April 17, 1964. On bonus tracks : Eric Dolphy (fl, cl, saxes), Nathan Gershman (cello), John Pisano (el-g), Hal Gaylor (b), Chico Hamilton (d). Newport Jazz Festival, Newport, Rhode Island, July 4 & 6, 1958.
• 2CD Set - Total Time: 153:01 - 13 tracks. |
