Comment:

Booker Little, dead at 23. Damn, that makes Dolphy's career look long. Even if they only made what was essentially one long record, the quintet on #8-9 has to be one of the greatest groups of all time. The title's from a Metronome interview.

Very nice. Out Front is a great album! Little was a strong composer, too, as said album shows.
