Conversations (2021 Reissue)

A landmark in Eric Dolphy's discography. Conversations is the result of a historical studio session held in New York in 1963 with Dolphy at the core of various line up configurations featuring a bunch of young innovators like Prince Lasha, Sonny Simmons, Woody Shaw, Bobby Hutcherson, Clifford Jordan, Richard Davis...

Each of the four tracks is a fine example of Dolphy's highly eclectic language including an alto sax solo of rare beauty (Love Me), a landmark duet with Richard Davis (Alone Together) and two magnificent quintet pieces (Jitterbug Waltz and Music Matador). A real piece of Art from a true Jazz Genius in the early New Thing era.
