Verve Jazz Masters 15 - Charlie Parker
Audio CD (April 19, 1994)
Original Release Date: April 19, 1994
Label: Polygram Records
Bitrate: 192 kbps

For those who haven't yet invested in Definitive's excellent four-CD set Charlie Parker: The Complete Norman Granz Master Takes, Verve Jazz Masters 15 may serve as a useful sampler containing some of this master improviser's best performances recorded between January 1946 and July 1953. In addition to Jazz at the Philharmonic jams ("I Can't Get Started" clocks in at over nine minutes), collaborations with orchestras led by Machito, Joe Lippman, Jimmy Carroll, and Neal Hefti, Bird is heard in the company of the best modern jazzmen of the day. By virtue of the excellent material compiled herein, this potent package rates as one of the best entries in Verve's Jazz Masters series. ~ arwulf arwulf, All Music Guide

I am untutored when it comes knowing jazz,I bought this album on the strength of one cut from the encyclopedia sized compilation called THE VERVE STORY, Repetition, Disc#1.
This album is like opening a window into another spirit dimension.
Jazz and with it American culture was in such flux at that time. This album, with widely various styles recalls that sense of flux that resides in us still, that still seeks the eternal and makes jazz relevant today. That transformative presence is well enough mapped out in this set of recordings for me to begin to understand the man:immortal artist and tortured soul,both come out quite strongly. The sound recording is quite good for the time it was done.The label is quality. This is one of the longest running CDs I have, so its value. ~ John Feesey
