Presented here is the complete original LP Outward Bound, Eric Dolphy's first album as a leader. The album features Dolphy in a quintet format with Freddie Hubbard and the first of several collaboration with the great trumpeter.

Dolphy's music is filled with sharp, jagged lines that lift the listener as they spiral to peak after peak of raw emotional expression. This album is life. - ***** Don DeMicheal, DownBeat
