this song is junk.  There really aren't that many good jazz songs out there. A select few.

Masters. Sad to see the back off of an awesome people giving up to the lame hip hop and rap coming from this. Just life I guess. Their memory will be always in our hearts anyways.

Solos are meaningless if you can't hear the changes.

Is the pitch altered here? I'm guessing maybe as a result of the recording speed, or the tape's aging? There's something a little sharp and unpleasant here, compared to The Quintet recording at Massey Hall.

i think it's just possible that Dizzy was the coolest cat ever to walk God's green Earth?

Thanks for uploading this video, I'm a huge fan of Charlie Parker's work.

On a site note, I'm selling a Selmer Reference 54 Hummingbird, Alto Saxophone (Standard Edition) on ebay, and I thought I'd display its sale in relevant places, as it is a collector's item dedicated to Charlie Parker (there are only 200 in the United States). Please message me if interested as I apparently cannot post web addresses in these comments.

Thanks again for the upload.
