This album was recorded in 1964 by multi-instrumentalist Eric Dolphy and this was his only recording for Blue note as a leader. "Out to Lunch" is generally considered as one of the finest albums Blue note ever released. For many the music on this album was the high point of the sixtees avant garde. Not only the music on this cd is famous, but also the cover art by Reid Miles is well known. The cover features a photo of a 'will be back' sign displayed in a shop window showing a sevenhanded (!) clock. A surreal photograph.
