Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Charlie Parker welcomed the opportunity to record standards with a small string ensemble in 1949, and the results are stunning, his liquid alto soaring over the tuneful and only occasionally stiff arrangements. Along the way, he invests tunes like "I Didn't Know What Time It Was" and "Laura" with a unique blend of bluesy realism and mercurial improvisation. The CD adds live versions from a Carnegie Hall concert, and there are also two brilliant versions of Neal Hefti's "Repetition". The 1947 version has Bird flying spontaneously over the dense orchestration of horns, strings, and Latin percussion. --Stuart Broomer



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Bird
These recordings often were and are looked down upon by jazz 'purists'.

These recordings are the ones that Charlie Parker was most proud of.

When he was dying, he played his doctor his recording of 'Just Friends'. The version is absolutely beautiful. His alto rises over the strings like a bloom from a flowerbed.

'Everthing Happens To Me', 'Laura', and 'Out Of Nowhere' are similarly overlooked gems in his body of work.

The recently included live recordings are a joy to the ears.

Recommended unreservedly.
