This set of rare recordings dating from 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 (at the home of Bird's friend Phil Baxter and at Vic Damon's studio) made with local musicians and a very relaxed-sounding Parker who has the room to really stretch out and show us the shape of jazz that was to come in his wake.Release Year: 2024Tracks: 1: Bird Song #12: Bird Song #23: Bird Song #34: Cherokee5: Body and Soul6: Honeysuckle Rose7: Perdido8: Cherokee9: My Heart Tells Me10: I Found a New Baby11: Body and Soul12: Margie13: I'm Getting Sentimental Over You Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
