It would have been Maestro Eric's 87th birthday today, so I
pulled this out, dusted it off, and sprinkled a bit of sonic pixie
dustings around to get it really humming. I felt it sounded a little
flat at the high end, so I improved this with the Sound Forge 9
Graphic Dynamics tool, as well as removing most of the vinyl
transcription crackle from the solo passages in Tracks 05 and
06, sourced as they were from another tape in the original seed.
I also tagged the files, corrected typos, and created new FLAC
fingerprints. Finally, I altered this text file you are reading to be a
little more streamlined.
There are no words to describe how awesome this set is -- it's
the real LAST DATE, recorded 9 days after that LP's concert,
and the last known recording of Eric in action -- and how much
Eric Dolphy means to me, Jazz, and music in general. Pull this
down and bask in the glow of absolutely unparalleled and
elegant artistry at its finest, and remember to remember this
incredible man, born this day in 1928."

Great music here, like every post that are to find on this channel. After having delighted us with a huge journey through Hermeto Pascoal's sublime art, thank you so much Bigfootpegrande for bringing more gems to our ears and souls .
The reference here to the genius of Frank Zappa is worth mentioning .
(for the few of you who might not know, Zappa wrote an amazing piece-among so many others- called The Eic Dolphy Memorial Babecue)
And yes, last december was the 28th anniversary of his untimely passing.
Parabens e gratidão Bigfootpegrande .

I'm an Eric Dolphy fan too. I have quite a few albums, but don't have the Springtime track. Nice one.
