  • Many alto players... e.g. Sonny Stitt, John Coltrane, James Moody, Sahib Shihab, Jimmy Heath... switched to tenor hoping that the influence of Bird would show less. But on this recording Bird is heard on tenor sax, exposing the young Sonny Rollins as a true Parker epigone. Just listen to Rollins' phrasing: it is so much Bird!

  • mmmm such a tasty arrangement!

  • Parker on tenor. Priceless.

  • @bluedoor4 Bebop is a sub genre of Jazz. Jazz isn't as specific a term in labeling the different techniques and progressions that marked certain styles within the Jazz genre. Parker's approach was rather unconventional at the time and that style was eventually labeled Bebop, hence Charlie Parker being the father of Bebop, Bebop Jazz if you like.

  • I sense that this man has had a great influence on many jazz musicians. And perhaps other types of musicians as well.

  • Respond to this video...

  • @bluedoor4 bebop is jazz--its just the name given to the musical genre dizzy,bird,monk, kenny clarke, max roachbud powell, mary lou williams, and others developed in the 1940s, primarily in Harlem.

  • One of top 5 important jazz-recordings!
