Customer Reviews:

If you can disregard mediocre sound quality - go for it!.......2004-04-09

This record is historical. It was originally released as "Softly as in the morning sunrise" by some other lable. Dolphy is accompanied here by McCoy Tyner, Reggie Workman and unexpectedly fitting Mel Lewis (one would expect Elwin Jones in his place, but in a less melodic/more supporting/metric way he managed to complement the group). The quality of sound on this re-issue is definitely better that on the German original, but still far from being perfect. In other words, if you can sacrifice the sonic quality of recording and appreciate superb musicianship of the session, than go ahead, since the versions of the "Green Dolphin Street" and "Softly as in the Morning Sunrise" are among the very best ever recorded by Dolphy.It seems that Japanese company did their best, but you can not go far if quality of the master is not good.
