Description
When 'Bird' recorded the first of the numbers on this CD he was little more than an exciting and novel diversion in a Swing dominated Jazz scene. Ten years later, by the time of his death, he had altered the very nature of the music, transformed lives and made the development of Jazz beyond what he himself had envisaged possible for a new generation of musicians.
This value-for-money, superbly annotated compilation, Two CDs for the Price of One, plots two aspects of Parker's career, almost 140 minutes of Jazz genius.
