I was between 18 and 20, about 1958 and 1960 when I first heard this...it still blows me away.

@farshimelt

Me too.

It still blows all of us away - and will forever ✌️ Bird Lives

@arko9151

huh, i'm 18 now and i love this. 50s and 60s jazz is the best! my favorites are ahmad jamal (RIP, shoutout nas and pete rock for putting me on) and duke ellington (though i'm fond of his earlier 30s recordings too

@@arko9151 I’m a retired cab driver and I had the pleasure of taking Ahmad Jamal from the La font hotel to Blues Alley and Mingus from the Cellar Door to an Arlington Va. hotel. My high school allowed us to bring in music to be played during the lunch hour. I brought in Ahmad Jamal’s at the Pershing But Not For Me.

Bird was truly magical... opening phrase of " April in Paris " is beautiful....

Two weeks ago in New York City. The first day of the 3 day festival the city park performed Charlie Parker classic Charile Parker with strings live. It was a great concert. The Charlie Parker Jazz festival 2012 is every August at two location Marcus Gravey park and topkin park in the east villiage. It is worth your time to go there.

I was there and my nephew was on drums. My father is the drummer on this original recording and he also played with Bird at Birdland (opening night and many times thereafter).
