Best Live Albums By Eric Dolphy

I shied away from investigating Eric Dolphy for too many years.

In my mind, he was tied to Ornette Coleman, free jazz (i.e. free of any tune or melody) and the more extreme, ugly squawks that come from John Coltrane in the early 1960s.

I was wrong but I only discovered it thanks to “risking” a Charles Mingus live album (Cornell 1964)  by Eric Dolphy as the star soloist.

What I found instead was a multi-instrumentalist mega-talent who pushed established boundaries but never lost sight of where he was trying to go.
