Charlie Parker Quintet - Bird of Paradise download song

Nobody cares who brought you here people (especially if its a mediocre ''metal'' singer)!

when i heard the beginning i thought is this 'all the things you are'? but it does pay to listen to the rest of the song despite the intro.

Bird is just bursting with ideas and energy-- Listen to all the stuff he plays behind Miles' solo! Brimming with Life and Love! This was recorded shortly after his release from Camarillo-- He was cleaned up and in absolute top form.. In my opinion, some of his best work was from these '47 sessions...

Serj Tankian has brought me here.

You can hear a little of Charlie in all eras and all genres of our music. Phrasing and timing is impeccable. Greatest.

the "new orleans-like" final counterpoint is a wonder. I can't understand why they so seldom did this kind of things....

hauntingly beautiful melody played by one of the world's greatest alto saxophonists! - gives me velvet chills!

I'll be so glad when the tides change in smooth jazz today, and the sax sounds warm and smooth like this again, instead of the screeching, wailing and incessant high pitches that annoy me so much on smooth jazz radio...

found  Charlie Parker by watching the Cosby Show

Pure Poetry...Bird's solo on this tune is just one of the best things already done in the universe...

Strange thing about Bird, in his solos he moves so far away that you think he won't make it back for the next chord change. I'm on the edge of my seat saying, "he won't make it, he won't make it!" But invariably he does and I breathe a sigh of relief. Bird lives!

2:24 the most underrated thing about Bird is how he played/improvised counterpoint. Check it. On any record if he's playing underneath someone leading the melody, he plays the most astounding, balanced, and complimentary phrases.

hee, anybody noticed, this is all the things you are, like completely

Searching "charlie parker bird" brought me here. Yeah, I know, I was surprised too.
