Interboogieology is an album by David Murray released on the Italian Black Saint label in 1978. It features performances by Murray, cornetist Butch Morris, bassist Johnny Dyani and drummer Oliver Johnson. Marta Contreras sings on two tracks.[1]

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars, stating, "For this fairly early recording, avant-garde tenor saxophonist David Murray teams up with cornetist Butch Morris, bassist Johnny Dyani and drummer Oliver Johnson for some fairly free improvisations, with the originals written by either Murray or Morris. Two of the numbers also utilize the adventurous voice of Marta Contreras. The results are stimulating if not essential; a lesser but still interesting effort.".[2]
