    • My first exposure to Bird was the Savoy/Arista LP box set, picked up whilst on a visit to Sydney in the mid 80s. Not long after I found the Dial/Spotlite LP box set here in Brisbane second hand. Still have them both but they have been superseded (for listening) by the Savoy/Dial Atlantic set & Dial Mosaic. Sublime music!!
    • FWIW, I just wrote to Spotify in the Support chat and mentioned some of these examples (as well as others that I found). I mentioned that these "artists", while not listed under the profiles of the real artists, have been assigned misleading "names". A couple of hours later I got this email from Spotify: "Thanks for informing us about this. We’ve checked it out and see what you mean, so we’ve passed it on to the Content team for review. Hopefully they’ll have this sorted for you soon. Please be aware this could take several weeks to be reflected in the app".   
    • Good point, Mike! I am revisiting Max Harrison's 'A Jazz Retrospect', and the first article is 'Charlie Parker's Savoy Recordings', written as early as 1959. Interesting analysis on Bird's improvisations. Harrison concludes that, in most of the recording sessions, and contrary to the statement of Ross Russell and others that Bird usually developed his best solos in the first take, Parker managed to make his improvisations evolve take after take, including new ideas and assembling them more coherently.
