Allegedly Eric Dolphy's final recorded performance, this session in Hilversum, Holland, teams the masterful bass clarinetist, flutist, and alto saxophonist with a Dutch trio of performers. In pianist Misha Mengelberg, bassist Jacques Schols, and drummer Han Bennink, Dolphy was firmly entwined with a group who understood his off-kilter, pretzel logic concept in shaping melodies and harmonies. Three Dolphy originals, the one from Monk, one from Mengelberg, and a standard are played so convincingly and with the utmost courage that they serve as a final statement of how Dolphy ultimately conceived of jazz itself. LAST DATE is one of those legendary albums whose reputation grows with every passing year. It also marks the passing of one era and the beginning of what has become a most potent and enduring legacy of European creative improvised tradition, started by Mengelberg and Bennink at this mid-'60s juncture.

5 stars My favourite jazz record
for me this album has everything i love about jazz. mr.dolphy and the rest of the players all play fantastically and are continuously innovative and sensitive to the balance of the quartet. I think it's a wonderful example of jazz at it finest.

5 stars Excellent Live Dolphy
I am not a very knowledgeable jazzer. I love Downbeat, but that magazine can sometimes seem over my head. The same goes for jazz. I don't quite get it, but I like the often adventurous nature of it. I will probably never be a huge jazz fan, but I like exploring it. I was fortunate enough to purchase the gold disc import version of this album, and enjoy it. I love live recordings. As I am listening to it right now, Eric Dolphy is playing some wonderful flute. I am pleased to have acquired this CD.

Miles Davis Kind Of Blue CD  (1959) Bonus Track; Remastered

Last Date album
CD $6.25  4.6 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
With BIRTH OF THE COOL, Miles Davis distilled a new tonal palette for jazz. As early as 1954, Miles reacted to the escalating chordal complexity of hard bop by fashioning an evocative blues based on a simple scalar pattern ("Swing Spring"). KIND OF BLUE was the ultimate fulfillment of this approach, with Miles providing his collaborators little more than outlines for melodies and simple scales for improvisation. By emphasizing the blues and the improvisor's melodic gifts, KIND OF BLUE precipitated a major stylistic ...

The Rudy Van Gelder Edition of SOMETHIN' ELSE includes an essay by Bob Blumenthal. The track "Bangoon" is the correct title for the track "Allison's Uncle" that was originally included as a bonus on previous editions of SOMETHIN' ELSE. Digitally remastered using 24-bit technology by Rudy Van Gelder. This is part of the Blue Note Rudy Van Gelder Editions series. When alto saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley, a high school band director from Florida, passed through New York with brother Nat during a school break, he found more excitement than he was counting on. After Julian offered to sit in for a late reedman, ...

CD $11.35  5 stars Audio Samples Definitive Album
The late Oliver Nelson had such a successful career as a composer of film and TV music ("Theme From the Six Million Dollar Man") and arranger that it often overshadowed his abilities as a jazz musician. In 1961, Nelson assembled a fantastic small ensemble, including Eric Dolphy, Bill Evans, and Freddie Hubbard, for a session of six original compositions. Nelson was also an excellent, bluesy-toned saxophonist (heard here on tenor and alto) and his tunes cover a variety of moods, from the elegiac ...

This set of 'hot dance' music (orchestras mostly from the late 1920's playing jazz-influenced dance band arrangements) differs from the previous releases put out by the Diamond Cut label in that the selections are not taken from the Edison catalog but from the libraries of two record collectors. The 24 numbers feature a wide variety of groups (from 1926-30 with a number apiece from 1932 and 1935). Best-known of the bands are Ted Weems Orchestra (heard on a classic rendition of "What a Day"), Charlie Johnson's ...

I Belong To This Band: Eighty-Five Years Of Sacred Harp Recordings
I Belong To This Band: Eighty-Five Years Of Sacred Harp Recordings CD  (2006)

Last Date music CDs
CD $13.35  Audio Samples
As a companion CD to the film Awake, My Soul: The Story of the Sacred Harp, I Belong to This Band: Eighty-Five Years of Sacred Harp Recordings collects 30 performances in the Sacred Harp style, recorded as early as 1922 and as recently as 2006. As explained in the liner notes, Sacred Harp singing -- a form of Southern gospel music that's rather obscure to much of the general population -- "is characterized by mass participation, full-voiced singing, lack of instrumental accompaniment, and rotation of song leaders." Most of the material performed dates from before the middle of the 19th century, which helps give even the recent recordings in the genre a haunted, out-of-time feeling, and often the beginning sections are sung with the syllables "fa," "sol," "la," and "mi." Not that it matters much, but it's not the most chronologically balanced overview, with no recordings at all drawn from between the years 1960 and ...

Ben's Brother were a proper gigging band (not one discovered on a TV talent show), but the vocal qualities are not dissimilar to Ben Mills, who ...
