Yeeeehaaaa!!! I had to revive this thread cuz I just picked up 'Eric Dolphy at the 5 Spot w/ Booker Little Vol. 1' This is my first exposure to the 5 Spot dates and this one absolutely KILLS. Booker Little was a MONSTER!! Kind of an unorthodox style but clean as hell ever so fluid.
My first impressions of the rhythm section is that they had some great chemistry during these performances. I can really sense it in the second tune, Bee Vamp.
I know, I know I need to get the box, and about 4 others but sadly, that won't happen anytime soon.
