The 1961 album, "Ezz-Thetics", by the George Russell Sextet, remains a watermark in jazz exploration. The lineup includes Don Ellis on trumpet, Dave Baker on trombone, Eric Dolphy on alto saxophone and bass clarinet, Steve Swallow on bass, Joe Hunt on drums, and George Russell on piano. The track featured in this video, "Round Midnight" (a Monk-Williams composition), is a stirring example of the brilliance of Eric Dolphy. Eric would be dead a mere three years later at the age of 36. This video is a tribute to his genius.

I am reminded of Eric Dolphy when I hear this. I am so grateful to youtube for allowing people to share their music with me. There were some greats before my time that I never had a chance to hear but had heard legendary stories about them. Now I get a chance to hear them. I have to be careful myself. I have sugar diabetes. It is no joke I can tell you that. Eric died from complications and had a heart attack. I love the tune. I play it myself.

Absolutely fabulous ! Thanks for posting. Have you heard "A Bird in Igor's Yard" by George Russell? His composition of an imagined collaboration between Stravinsky and Bird? They were due to work together before Bird died, Recorded by Buddy de Franco and then withdrawn? I am searching for it.. thanks again.

@valvetrom TradJazz was "past" at 1961. We've already had the "Kind of Blue" at 1959, which was so much inspired by George Russel's work indeed, the "Lydian Chromatic Concept of Tonal Organization". Those were really changing times, eternally remarkable

amazing 1961 sounding that far avantguard,we were still in Tradjazz.
