Charlie Parker did not have a middle name. He was named after his father, who also did not have a middle name either. These comments came from Charlie Parker's mother.

Thanks for posting. Pity you couldn't chat with Clint Eastwood before he embarked on his own misguided tribute to Parker. Oh well.

I've got the vinyl version of Bird's tour of Sweden, on Verve.
Would love to see film of it., if it still exists.
Are you sure Swedish TV filmed it?

man, he was out of sync that first time but he blew his horn really well...That guy probably realized later when Bird finally became famous.
