“Out to Lunch stands as Eric Dolphy's magnum opus, an absolute pinnacle of avant-garde jazz in any form or era. Its rhythmic complexity was perhaps unrivaled since Dave Brubeck's Time Out, and its five Dolphy originals -- the jarring Monk tribute "Hat and Beard," the aptly titled "Something Sweet, Something Tender," the weirdly jaunty flute showcase "Gazzelloni," the militaristic title track, the drunken lurch of "Straight Up and Down" -- were a perfect balance of structured frameworks, carefully calibrated timbres, and generous individual freedom. Much has been written about Dolphy's odd time signatures, wide-interval leaps, and flirtations with atonality.

And those preoccupations reach their peak on Out to Lunch, which is less rooted in bop tradition than anything Dolphy had ever done. But that sort of analytical description simply doesn't do justice to the utterly alien effect of the album's jagged soundscapes. Dolphy uses those pet devices for their evocative power and unnerving hints of dementia, not some abstract intellectual exercise. His solos and themes aren't just angular and dissonant -- they're hugely so, with a definite playfulness that becomes more apparent with every listen. The whole ensemble -- trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, vibist Bobby Hutcherson, bassist Richard Davis, and drummer Tony Williams -- takes full advantage of the freedom Dolphy offers, but special mention has to be made of Hutcherson, who has fully perfected his pianoless accompaniment technique. His creepy, floating chords and quick stabs of dissonance anchor the album's texture, and he punctuates the soloists' lines at the least expected times, suggesting completely different pulses. Meanwhile, Dolphy's stuttering vocal-like effects and oddly placed pauses often make his bass clarinet lines sound like they're tripping over themselves. Just as the title Out to Lunch suggests, this is music that sounds like nothing so much as a mad gleam in its creator's eyes.		”

@MrMacPhisto:

the only quality/mastering info you need about this is that it's NOT the RVG remaster, which suffers from dynamic range compression and high end boost (according to the experts... I trust them due to my subjective 'ear fatigue' when listening to it). We've had Kel's vinyl rip for some time which is of course a world apart (forgiving a minor needle jump in one track, which is a negligible detail). And now this. I would grab it without hesitating.

Edit:

I haven't listened to this yet (won't be able today), and would appreciate an opinion to be sure it's an improvement over the RVG. It's from 1996 (three years prior to the RVG edition) and coming from ruskaval I'm sure it's good stuff.

Edit: I just did some research. Is this true? I hope it's just this guy's mistake or that he got a defective cd. Please someone confirm this since I'm not at my home computer right now and haven't listened to the album:

A Classic Stereo Album Delivered in Mono, April 4, 2011
By SwissAmerican
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Out to Lunch (Audio CD)
This review addresses an audio issue and is not intended to detract from the historical and artistic importance of this classic session.

The Toshiba EMI import release of Eric Dolphy's last US studio date Out to Lunch is, inexplicably, folded into mono. It was originally recorded and mixed in stereo: Left - Center - Right (horns left, bass center, drums right). The Amazon.com sound samples misrepresent the Toshiba EMI CD since they are in stereo, ripped from the domestic RVG Series issue.

I cannot recommend this import. It suffers from the same excessive compression found on most of the RVG series reissues. I hope that Joe Harley and Alan Toshida at Audio Wave will consider remastering "Out to Lunch" as part of their exemplary Blue Note XRCD series.

The Audio Wave XRCD reissue mentionned above is the best sounding CD version. The Blue Note RVG sounds poor, reduced to almost mono and with very compressed dynamics.

I don't think there is an XRCD edition of this album! Still looking forward to sample this one.
Any opinions yet? Not many interested it looks...
Posted By: mertin Date: 24 Nov 2011 03:03:21
I'm listening right now. It's very nice IMHO. Not close to an XRCD or DCC but very very decent. I'm no expert but my ears are enjoying it. Much smoother, dynamic and with better stereo separation than the horrid RVG (I went back to it after quite a few years, and yes, it actually is unlistenable). This will be my reference edition of this album, that is, aside from Kel's great vinyl rip

I explored the wavefile of the first track from this and compared with the RVG edition. I think there's no question:
