This 2 CD collection includes newly discovered alternate takes, totaling 18 previously unreleased performances as well two essays in the booklet, one a personal tribute by saxophonist David Sanbornas and the other by Phil Schaap, a world-renowned Bird Historian. Charlie Parker is one of a handful of musicians who can be said to have permanently changed jazz, he was arguably the greatest saxophonist of all time. He could play remarkably fast lines that, if slowed down to half speed, would reveal that every note made sense. Parker's remarkable technique, original sound, and ability to come up with harmonically advanced phrases that could be both logical and whimsical were highly influential. By 1950, it was impossible to play 'modern jazz' with credibility without closely studying Charlie Parker. -amazon.com  Price: $33.98 |
