There is a little more chatter between Dolphy and emcee Joe Carroll between the other songs, too. This recording also serves up three tracks from 1961 with Dolphy on Danish television and two tracks with Dolphy in L.A. in 1949 (one with Charlie Mingus!)

Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:26am Doug Schulkind:

Hi SeanG!

@duke
"‘Melanie & Me’ was a promotional tool used for a movie shot by director Chris Fitchett in Australia in 1975. Pressed in an edition of 100 copies, it was handed out to people who partook in the film, and who attended the only screening to date in Sydney. Used as the background music for the entire movie, this was actually the second version of the soundtrack, recorded last minute by Simon Jones as Chris wasn’t happy with the original. The result had become one of the most sought after releases from the Aussie scene, and one of the most obscure records from the region as well."
