Eric Dolphy – Classic Down Beat Archives
From the Down Beat archives comes this 1964 tribute to the iconic reedman Eric Dolphy, who died suddenly earlier that year in Germany:
I was in the audience at the Newport Jazz Festival when Max Roach announced his death before launching into his “We Insist: Freedom Now Suite.” It was a sad day for the music.
