Far Cry With Booker Little
Far Cry was Eric Dolphy’s third album as a leader, following Outward Bound and Out There (all three LPs were recorded in 1960). These albums announced the beginning of a prolific career, which would tragically end four years later with Dolphy’s untimely death in Berlin on June 29, 1964, just nine days after turning 36-years old. Trumpeter Booker Little passed away at an even younger age. The trumpeter suffered from uremia, apparently as a consequence of Lupus, and died of kidney failure on October 5, 1961, at the age of 23. Far Cry was Dolphy and Little’s first recorded collaboration ever. Before the trumpeter’s death, they would participate together on five more albums.
