Mal Waldron & Booker Ervin : The Quest

Probably due to the fact that Eric Dolphy died untimely in 1964, making every one of his recorded contributions more widely sought after, pianist Mal Waldron’s album, ‘The Quest’, was reissued soon after its release under the reedman’s name. Tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin is also featured on ‘The Quest’. Ervin and Dolphy had both been members of the Charles Mingus group and the two reedmen recorded various LPs together with Mingus between 1960 and 1963.
