Treasures of YouTube: Dolphy, flute; Mingus “Meditations”

Eric Dolphy solos beautifully then uses his bass clarinet for the ensemble line of bassist/composer/bandleader Charles Mingus “Meditations on Integration” in this 1964 clip, which warms my dank, chill afternoon in Brooklyn.

 

Jaki Byard on piano, and dapper Danny Richmond, drums.
