TEMPTATION by Charlie Parker with Orchestra 78 rpm CLEF Records Jazz Series

[bzackbear]

After all the great playing nearer the beginning--in the out-going chorus he explodes with still more wonder creativity and MASTERY of his horn and his soul Thank God for allowing him to be with us even though it was so short.

amazing, you having this old record. they must have kept the masters a long time. perhaps will post my LP of this for audiophile reasons. thanks for the happy-to-know they were producing bird way back when.

Of all the "Parker and Strings" stuff, my absolute favorite... anticipating Wes in the '60's, and Mangione in the '70's...

Overlooked but tremendous cover by Bird and strings !!!!!
