condition (record/cover): NM / EX

With original innersleeve.

Another pressing of the 1964 Blue Note masterpiece, because Out to Lunch! is permanent-demand stock and we treat it with the respect that status earns. Eric Dolphy's greatest studio hour: five compositions that still sound like the future's future, and a band of geniuses - Freddie Hubbard, Bobby Hutcherson, Richard Davis, Tony Williams - treating them with the mix of precision and abandon that has made the session a permanent study text for musicians of every instrument. "Straight Up and Down" wobbles like its titular drunk with complete compositional control; "Gazzelloni" makes the flute dangerous. Reid Miles's clock cover remains one of the label's iconic images, fitting perfectly a record that rebuilt jazz time from the gears up.

Every serious collection owns this; many own it several times, in several pressings, and regret nothing. Here is your copy, or your next one - either way, correct decision.
