Charles McPherson was definitely coming from the more traditional "Bird" school. I really don't think Eric Dolphy was coming from that place as much, rather at least, heading in another direction; he had his own thing, clearly. Both were great. Actually, most of the younger cats from that time were coming from "Bird's" place, so, I correct myself.
@Jerkicus you're both wrong. the alto player is Charles McPherson. eric IS on this, but he doesn't solo. there's another alto player, and that would be. Charles McPherson. actually you have all the personnel wrong. like really wrong. dude did you even listen to this before you uploaded this? cause there's a tenor sax solo, and you don't even have that instrument listed. this song isn't even on the album you cited.
@Jerkicus the real personnel is Ted Curson & Lonnie Hillyer on Trumpet; Eric Dolphy & Charles McPherson on Alto; Booker Ervin on Tenor; Paul Bley on Piano; Charles Mingus on Bass/comp/arr.; Dannie Richmond on Drums
@Jerkicus A lot cats were playing on a high level during that time but that solo is so in the pocket, harmonically, you'd have to deduce that was not Dolphy soloing.
anyone knows name of label?
thanks
