This is one of two CDs that document the most innovativestudio sessions in Eric Dolphy\'s musical career. Both appear for the first timewith their original LP cover artwork and digitally remastered from the originalstereo tapes produced by Alan Douglas during the early part of 1963, when EricDolphy and Douglas decided to experiment with Eric\'s original compositions. Twoapproaches were agreed upon. One was of clear simplicity; Eric on reedinstruments and Richard Davis on bass. The other was more involved - a tenpiece orchestra of young men who understood and admired Eric\'s work.
The recording sessions took place late at night in a veryrelaxed studio for five successive nights. In this environment the playing ofEric Dolphy, Richard Davis and the other musicians was unbelievably inspired.So much was created, individual compositions went from \'almost commercial\' to\'very far out.\'
Two albums were produced from that beautiful week. Thefirst, called \'Conversations,\' was released through FM Records. On this, thesecond, is incorporated performances that were considered too futuristic to putout at that time.
—Don Heckman (From the original liner notes)
In tribute to Eric Dolphy (1928-1964):
Whatever I\'d say would be an understatment. I can only saymy life was made much better by knowing Eric. He was one of the the greatestpeople I\'ve ever known, as a man, a friend, and a musician.
—John Coltrane
