Alto saxophonist Charlie Parker (1920-1955) was among the most

influential jazz artists ever, and one of the few indisputable geniuses of

his time. This set presents the complete master takes from his recording

sessions for Ross Russell's Dial label. Included here are some of Bird's

most admired sides, such as "A Night in Tunisia", "Cool Blues" and "All

the Things You Are", as well as the troubled "Lover Man" session, after

which the saxophonist suffered a mental breakdown.

The masters from a 1945 Red Norvo date (Bird's only existing

encounter with pianist Teddy Wilson, reissued on Dial) are also

contained here. Also issued on Dial was the so-called "Home-

Cooking" date, an amateur recording made right after Bird left the

Camarillo psychiatric hospital (the session is presented here in its

entirety, including the complete version of "I Got Rhythm".

As a bonus, we have added two additional complete Charlie Parker

sessions from the same period, which were originally issued under the

names of Sir Charles Thompson and Sarah Vaughan.
