Tribute to Eric Dolphy, Part 2
It’s another top-notch batch of Eric Dolphy compositions, as recorded by a host of other jazz artists. There was so much great music to play in the first part of his tribute to the legendary saxman that Craig needed another show to spin more wonderful interpretations of Dolphy’s works. Absolutely worth hearing!
