That sounds a lot like The Complete Charlie Parker on Verve, or titled something like that. It's the exact same concept. I bet the whole series was designed by the same guy or organization. Though I don't have data to prove this.
I loved their first one when I was 14 or 15. Ah no, I see now it's their second, called Ultravox! from 1977. And it's considered less punky than glam. It does in fact stem from that. But maybe it was their debut, and produced by Eno.
I have both. I think the Japanese mini LP sounds better but I've never compared it to the other. Plus it's a K2, I think.
Oh, and I must add the album is very good.
Just placed an order. I know I am late to the party, but I took advantage of the 40% discount Rooster mentions. Reading an excerpt from the book on Kenny Burrell convinced me I needed to read this. I tried with a promo code from when the book first came out, but it was no longer valid. But thanks to Rooster's suggestion I took advantage of a similar arrangement.
To not speak about this one, the thread made me think of. There was a fifth element, the drummer, of course. But as he was from somewhere else he's not mentioned. He was Kenny Clarke.
Porcupine is incredingly good. I added it the other day to a playlist of 80s music in Spotify. I think I never had it. But the song that stands out for me is The Cutter.
The other day a friend, well a friend who's 15 years older, and who likes very much dixieland, sent me a song by them. Tuba Skinny. I still haven't listened to it (though I'm sure it's good), but will do so quickly.
