Cracklin' is an album recorded by American jazz drummer Roy Haynes with tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin and released in July 1963 by Prestige Records.[1] [2] The two tracks written by pianist Ronnie Mathews–"Honeydew" and "Dorian"– were also released on single by the parent Prestige label.
Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating: "Most of drummer Roy Haynes' dates as a leader put the focus on a star soloist... Ervin's unique sound, soulful yet very advanced, is well showcased".[3]
