In addition to the help you have already received you might try Alan Saul's Dolphy disco, which is a session based document and which should be complete with regard to all Candid recordings. Eric Dolphy discography

The original issue of "The Cry" is Contemporary S7610. No bass clarinet is listed in the liner notes and I don't remember hearing anything but Lasha's flute and Simmons' alto. Given that the track order might be different on the cd, tell me which track is #4 and I will confirm from the Contemporary lp. On the vinyl #4 is "Ghost of the Past". Otherwise, the personnel is Prince Lasha, fl, Sonny Simmons, as, Gary Peacock, b, Mark Proctor, b, Gene Stone, d. Proctor does not play on "Bojangles", "Lost Generation", and "A.Y.". AFAIK, the group was a collaborative one. "Firebirds" was not recorded at around the same time. "The Cry" is November 21, 1962; "Firebirds" is September 28 & 29, 1967. Both Lasha and Simmons recorded separately in the interim between the two lp's.

My first post so I hope I have the protocol right. #1 This new release appears to be the August 1963 (no exact date) Showboat set. The titles and timings match up except that what has been listed as "Afro Blue" is in fact "The Promise". Also, Roy Haynes is not the drummer. Elvin Jones is back on drums for this date. #2 The date for the earlier Showboat set, which does feature Haynes, is June 10, 1963. #3 "Resolution" is not from the Showboat. It was recorded in Philadelphia at Pep's on September 18, 1964.
