The Best of Charlie Parker: 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection
- Shrink-wrapped
Charlie "The Bird" Parker is one of the most important names in history of jazz, if not American music in general. Almost single-handedly he turned what was mostly a dance music, an entertainment, into an art form - his playing & unique approach to influence generations of musicians to come. Parker's Millennium edition features the highlights from his recordings for the Mercury & Verve labels, 1947 to 1953, essentially the heart of the great artist's career. The collection includes tracks with small & big bands as well as several from his famed sessions with strings. Chronologically sequenced, from 1947's "The Bird" from the Mercury album The Jazz Scene through "My Little Suede Shoes" & "Loverman" to his 1953 reprise of his classic "Now's The Time," all twelve tracks are classics from one of the greatest.
