The Essential compilation issued by the Dutch division of EMI/Blue Note should have been called The Essential Donald Byrd With Larry and Fonce Mizell. The material featured here all comes from the albums Black Byrd, Street Lady, Stepping Into Tomorrow, and Places and Spaces from the 1970s. There is no personnel, discographical, or chronological documentation, making this not even worth recommending even as a best-of from the period as only the most familiar listeners -- those who already have this material -- would be familiar enough to navigate it.
