Last Date is a live recording by jazz musician Eric Dolphy. The concert, recorded on June 2, 1964 in Hilversum, Holland, was just 27 days before Dolphy's death from diabetic shock.

Contents

Despite the title, this concert was not Dolphy's "last date" and this is not even Dolphy's latest surviving recorded performance – another concert was recorded in Paris 9 days later.
