Full Details

Charlie Parker's Bird in Kansas City on LP. This Release Is a New Set of Rare Charlie Parker Recordings Dating from Between 1941-1951, Most of the Tracks Have Never Been Heard Before.

This new set of rare Charlie Parker recordings dating from between 1941-1951, most of them never having been heard before and some never even having been known to exist, chronicle Bird’s evolution from a blossoming soloist with the Jay McShann Band into a brilliant improviser who dominated the jazz landscape for decades to come. In addition to two unreleased 78s with the McShann band, this set offers two sets of private recordings made with local musicians and a very relaxed-sounding Parker.
