If you want to hear what Charlie Parker was about, this may not be the ideal recording, but if you want to hear what life is about, why I'm still here and happy to be here..... then you're listening to one of the reasons.

@KnFC he wasnt high. he couldnt get heroin in california, so he drank heavily. he was so drunk they had to hold him up. he actually played better when he was high on heroin!

@blah148 yeah i think that's errol garner- amazing to say the least

[nickinky]

He wasnt high on heroin... When he move to California he had a much harder time getting heroin than when he was in new York, Therefore he started drinking heavily... Its said he drank a little over a fifth of whiskey before this set and thats why someone had to hold him up from behind,,,

@MichaelSchwartzJazz The infamous Charlie Parker -recording-... the recording is infamous because he was so high on heroin that he had to be held up while he played.
