Charles Mingus Sextet featuring Eric Dolphy on bass clarinet.
Dolphy one of my most favorite all time musicians plays an unaccompanied solo in the middle of the tune, and he is great. He has way too much energy, intensity, and uniqueness for the group to comfortably handle and this was Dolphy's fate in many groups including this group of prestigious musicians. Dolphy was playing on the far edges of the norm.
The clip unfortunately ends abuptly.
