Charlie Parker s influence permeates this 1960 session. Beyond the obvious acknowledgment on song titles Mrs. Parker of K.C. Bird s Mother and Ode to Charlie Parker , his restless spirit is utilized as a guiding light for breaking bebop molds. Far Cry finds multi-reedist Eric Dolphy in a transitional phase, relinquishing Parker s governing universal impact and diving into the next controversial phase that critics began calling anti-jazz. On this date Booker Little s lyrical trumpet and Jackie sic Byard s confident grasp of multiple piano styles though both steeped in hard bop were sympathetic to the burgeoning avant-garde approach that Dolphy displays, albeit sparingly, on this session. Far Cry contains the initial performance of Dolphy s future jazz classic Miss Ann, along with his first recorded solo alto sax performance on Tenderly, in which Dolphy bridges the gap between the solo saxophone performances of Coleman Hawkins and Anthony Braxton.

The PROMOTIONAL, RADIO STATION-, AUDITION OR DEMONSTRATION COPIES AND RELEASES such as the one we have here were often distributed among the radio stations before the record was released to the public, sometimes as much as four months ahead. These records are generally considered to be the first among equals , which is to say the VERY FIRST generation and the VERY FIRST pressings of the particular title a PROTOTYPE and the earliest known official pressing of the record.

CONDITION:

RECORD

IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight

a WE GRADE THE VINYL AS EXCELLENT. This is one of those albums that are somewhat difficult to grade. It is somewhere between VG and NEAR MINT, just a notch below NEAR MINT. A few light abrasions ARE visible, but they are extremely shallow, superficial and only moderately visually distracting nothing significant .For the most part, the vinyl looks impeccable without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

b The record has a Rudy Van Gelder name, or his initials RVG stamped or hand-etched in the trail-off vinyl dead wax . On SOME Jazz labels Blue Note, Savoy, Regent, Prestige, Impulse, Verve this stamp signifies highly professional masterings either done by - or personally authorized by - the legendary engineer himself.

c The record has a deep groove an indent in the label about 1/2-inch from the edge of the label, which on SOME labels is associated with very early or first pressings .

d The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording

e The record comes in a hi-grade PVC inner sleeve, which has - apparently with success - shielded the record from the harmful impact of elements over many years

f True Stereo copies of this album are NOT known to exist.

g Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording

THE COVER

THE COVER IS NICE --- ABOUT VERY GOOD VG .
