Great second album by this English ‘inside and outside’ quartet and the first album I heard by them! Dedicated to Eric Dolphy, this features inspiring original compositions and is a great one.
“Out ‘n' In pays tribute to Eric Dolphy's musical legacy through nine Dolpy-inspired original compositions and two new arrangements of his work: Hat and Beard and Gazzelloni.
Dolphy was a relentless musician, tirelessly practicing new concepts and paths of expression. He continued the Jazz tradition but was uninhibited by it, bringing freedom and imagination into the Jazz language. His improvisations told stories, communicated through the strong vocal element in his performance. It was these ideas that have inspired us, and many others, into an in depth study of Dolphy's Music.”
