Tracks list

       The ninety-minute performance is a quartet date from Uppsala, just
northwest of Stockholm. Joining the leader's alto, bass clarinet, and flute are
pianist Ronny Johansson, bassist Kurt Lindgren, and drummer Rune Carlsson.
Listeners of European jazz are no doubt aware of the future credentials of the
rhythm section, and research shows a handful of sessions by the pianist in the
'70s.

Dolphy is, as always, the main attraction. What sets this disc apart is the
material, in both good and bad ways. Good because the unfamiliarity of the group
resulted in lots of rare covers played for the only (or almost only) time, such
as "Laura (Mercer-Raskin), "52nd Street Theme (the Monk theme appearing twice
briefly), "Bag's Groove (Milt Jackson), and "When Lights are Low
(Carter-Williams). But this left little room for Dolphy's own compositions;
indeed, only "245 is self-penned.
