Down at Dawn presents a reissue of Booker Ervin and Roy Haynes' Cracklin', originally released on Prestige in 1963. The six tracks include originals by Ervin ("Scoochie"), pianist Ronnie Mathews ("Dorian" and "Honeydew"), and Haynes ("Bad News Blues") as well as tremendous versions of Randy Weston's "Sketch of Melba" and Hubert Giraud's "Under Paris Skies." Recorded at Rudy Van Gelder's studio in Englewood Cliffs, NJ on April 6, 1963, this soulful and adventurous album deserves a place in any modern jazz collection. Personnel: Ervin - tenor saxophone; Matthews - piano; Larry Ridley - bass; Haynes - drums.
