ccxviii. DOLPHY, Eric (1928-1964)
from: Out To Lunch.
Named after the great flautist, Severino Gazzelloni, who Dolphy admired.
The 13-bar head is repeated, and then ...
The beginning of Eric's solo (0:32) is beautifully transcribed by Adam Stokes:
Hubbard takes over from Eric -- mid-trill -- at 2:52. Both Davis and Williams (18-years-old! "Tony doesn't play time, he plays pulse" -- ED) are all over the place, leaving a wide space for Freddie to inhabit ...
Hutcherson's solo begins around 4:12 -- again with the rhythm section in a relaxed free-fall (Davis is walking at first); out to dinner, perhaps!
Around 5:40, Davis's amazing solo begins with double-stops.
The head comes back and they're out ... for some sort of good meal!
