I remember being a baby and my mother singing this song to me. Heard it a thousand times over. Bird is the only one that ever made tears flow from my eyes.
Oh my God...Bird LIVES! They just had a special on WUSF/NPR 90.5 FM. He was featured as the Jazz artist of the week. I have fallen in love with his music. What a genius! I wish I could have been there in person...I would have been captivated, elevated, and full of joy!
Totally agree Parker with strings one of the most beautiful and extraordinary recordings ever so far ? Great melodic tunes played by someone who had studied the forms and his instrement and brilliant arangements and masterful co musicians And i speak as a chicargo blues fan it really stands out ! Just think most contempory musicians serm intent on just playing scales super fast its shallow Parker never loses his blues feel or classical extrapolation s and warm tone and vibrato i love it i wasnt even born when he recorded it but its sublime wow ama zing
