Just when you thought it's gone ... IT'S BACK! -
"Take the A Train" is also included on First Bass - Oscar Pettiford (IAJRC-CD-1010).
-
The Gordon's version of "Take the A Train" from Hamp's Jazztone 1956 date with Pettiford etc. is a hip classic.

Anything you can recommend of him playing bebop lines?

Not sure that I can think of anybody who could do that fluently. Who would you recommend?

Playing Favorites: Reflections on Jazz of the Later 1940's
Quasimado replied to BillF's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Always enjoyed this 10 inch LP. My version (I think there were several) had "Boplicity", some of the '49 Tristano sextet tracks plus a trio version of 'Yesterdays' ... -
What else is similar/related to the Tristano/Konitz/Marsh Atlantic Mosaic? (1960's or earlier)
Quasimado replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Artists
Lee In Paris (1953) on Vogue - the level of Lee's playing here with a quartet approximates that of the live recording on Pacific Jazz with the Mulligan group. There's a further release on Vogue that contains all the out-takes. Incredible! -

3.5 hour four-part Charlie Parker documentary by Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (1989). Clips, interviews with Bird, Chan/ Harvey Cropper (artist)/ Red Rodney/ Max/ Klook/ Roy Haynes/ Monk/ Chet/ Red Mitchell/ Moody/ Milt Jackson/ Percy Heath/ Bob Dorough/ Elvin Jones/ Tristano etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlS_c2kXQOI&t=6627s Fine production based on recollections (and projections) by Chan and Harvey Cropper plus clips & interviews with musician colleagues accompanied by musical excerpts (some rare Bird to my ears) … Highly Recommended! -

Dodo Marmarosa
Quasimado replied to JamesAHarrod's topic in Jazz In Print - Periodicals, Books, Newspapers, etc...
In the article, Dodo says his solo on "You're Drivin' Me Crazy" with Jug is a favorite - it's easy to see why - just beautiful! Also, I just realized that Bird does not solo at all on that take of Ornithology ... Thanks James- 7 replies

Is there a discussion already on the “chasing the bird” release that’s coming out?
Quasimado replied to Hardbopjazz's topic in New Releases
Good Question. It’s a graphic novel by Dave Chisholm (Z2 Comics) https://www.udiscovermusic.com/news/charlie-parker-bird-100-continues/ In particular: “This fall, for ‘Bird 100’, Parker’s longtime label Verve Records, in conjunction with UMe, will offer an illuminating new perspective on a previously under-examined chapter of Parker’s life with a new collection titled Bird In LA, featuring unreleased songs recorded during Bird’s storied visits to Los Angeles in the mid ‘40s through the early ‘50s.”
