│ MiNDSCAPE brings to you a nice remastered CD of Charlie ││
│ Parker. Enjoy this as you would if you were there standing ││
│ in front of Charlie as he played Live for you. Music you ││
│ will never forget as time ages. ││
│ ││

│ The Best Of Charlie Parker. Personnel include: Charlie ││
│ Parker (alto saxophone); Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Red ││
│ Rodney (trumpet); Hank Jones, John Lewis, Al Haig, ││
│ Thelonious Monk, Walter Bishop Jr. (piano); Curly Russell, ││
│ Percy Heath, Ray Brown, Teddy Kotick (double bass); Kenny ││
│ Clarke, Max Roach, Roy Haynes, Shelly Manne, Buddy Rich ││

│ Rodney; Kenny Clarke; Roy Haynes. Producer: Norman Granz ││
│ Compilation Producers: Andy McKaie; Bob Porter. Liner Note ││
│ Author: Bob Porter. Recording information: 1947 - 1953. ││
│ Though saxophonist Charlie Parker's legendary Dial sessions ││
│ had already laid the blueprint for jazz modernism by the ││
│ time the recordings collected on here were made, the seeds ││
│ of his revolution can be heard in luxuriant flower on this ││
│ MILLENNIUM COLLECTION. Jazz impresario and founder of Verve ││
│ Records Norman Granz began recording Parker in the late ││
│ 1940s and early '50s, and the results--while not always as ││
│ musically intense as the Dial or Savoy sessions--were ││
│ invariably of a superior sound quality. Thanks to Granz, ││
│ these crystalline recordings allow us to hear Bird with ││
│ stunning clarity, and this set is a fine overview of ││
│ Parker's work from the time. THE MILLENNIUM COLLECTION ││
│ features two selections of Parker playing with a full ││
│ orchestra ("Autumn in New York," "Repetition"), but the ││
│ artist sounds most at home in the small-group setting. ││
│ Abetted by fellow innovators Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, ││
│ Thelonious Monk, and Max Roach, among others, Parker unfurls ││
│ his dazzling complex harmonic lines on breakneck bop ││
│ workouts ("She Rote"), Latin-tinged numbers ("My Little ││
│ Suede Shoes"), and smoky blues ("K.C. Blues"). Parker's ││
│ re-recordings of tunes he'd cut earlier for Dial and Savoy, ││
│ "Now's the Time," "Confirmation," and "Loverman," are of ││
│ particular interest here. ││
│ ││
│ ││
│ If you like this release go out and buy it. ││
