Happy Birthday Charlie Parker

Parker's 96 birthday. Bird Lives!

Listening to the Charlie Parker Birthday Broadcast on WKCR.

Happy Birthday celebrations for Bird. Sad that he only lived to be 35.

[Utevsky]

Happy Birthday Bird!  I'll be saluting him with two hours of his music tonight on my program, "Straight, No Chaser."  You can hear it streaming live from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. Pacific time on www.kbcs.fm, OR any time in the next two weeks in the audio archive at the same website.

Great, JSngry !

[bluenoter]

Once again, Now's the Time!

A New York Times op-ed was published today for the occasion — not a music column, mind you, but an op-ed.

At the risk of sounding like a cutesy greeting card, Happy Bird Day.

[JSngry]

I hope Bird comes out of retirement for, like, a farewell tour. He's sorely missed!

[Scott Dolan]

Yeah, probably not the happiest of birthdays for him...

Happy Birthday, Bird!

Always glad on such occasions to spin a lot of Bird´s records.
