The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 27, 2013 Report Posted October 27, 2013 Interesting. I always thought that Granz was very conservative in his musical preferences, but putting the avant garde Charlie Parker onto the concert stage in 1946 was quite a risk. So, for that matter, was doing the same with Illinois Jacquet. MG Quote
