Alto saxophonist Charlie Parker (1920-1955) was among the most

influential jazz artists ever, and one of the few indisputable geniuses

of his time. This set presents the complete master takes from his studio

recording sessions for Herman Lubinsky's Savoy label. Included here are

some of Bird's most admired sides, such as "Koko", "Parker's Mood",

and "Donna Lee". One session presents him on tenor sax, an instrument

on which he only rarely recorded.

All other studio sessions originally recorded by other small labels during

that period but later acquired and reissued by Savoy have also been

included here.

As a bonus, this set presents two additional complete Charlie Parker

sessions recorded for Guild in 1945, as well as an extremely rare date

from that same year with trombonist Clyde Bernhardt and pianist Jay

McShann from which only the original broken glass-based (and thus

rather noisy) test pressings survive. Bird plays solos on all four sides.
