Unlike a lot of projects in which jazz diehards get together to pay tribute to a relatively obscure legend, the all-star local ensemble that performed Coltrane peer Eric Dolphy's most celebrated album at the AQ in June didn't geek out with their arrangements or turn to the avant-garde. This eight-song collection (including one original by Kelly Rossum) appeals to Dolphy's would-be masses with a wistful and elegant set anchored by David Milne's reed work and Dave Hagedorn's ear-candy vibes.
