Personnel includes: Eric Dolphy (alto saxophone, flute, bass clarinet); Misja Mengelberg (piano); Jacques Shols (bass); Han Bennink (drums).
Recorded in Hilversum, Holland on June 2, 1964.
Dolphy was born in Los Angeles in 1928 and became a prominent voice in jazz in the late-1950's playing with Chico Hamilton. His wailing alto sax was heard with many groups besides his own, and he could further claim to be the first bass clarinetist to become a jazz soloist of importance.
This was Dolphy's last concert, recorded on June 2, 1964 in Hilversum, Holland, four weeks before his death from diabetes. This was Dolphy's third visit to Holland; he played there in the fall of 1961 with John Coltrane and in April 1964 with Charles Mingus.
