An album of Charlie Parker's best performances, featuring Miles Davis as a young man.
Includes a recording featuring Miles Davis from 1946, as well as "Lover Man," famously performed in a state of chaotic consciousness.
Since the 1950s, the technology for recording jazz masterpieces has improved dramatically, and we can still enjoy the clear, dense sound of these masterpieces today. However, this album is a collection of Parker's performances from before, during the early days of recording technology, when he was full of talent, yet rough around the edges and exuding a more primal impulse. A collection of great performances left by the god of modern jazz on the legendary, prestigious Dial label! (From the obi)
