Immerse yourself in the world of classic jazz with Sonny Rollins’s stunning tribute to Charlie Parker. Released in 1956, this classic jazz album features a seamless 27-minute medley that intertwines seven timeless tunes, showcasing Rollins’ extraordinary talent on the tenor saxophone.
Rollins pays homage to Parker by selecting standards associated with him, recorded just a year after Bird’s passing. The album features standout performances, including the melodic interplay of “I Remember You” and “They Can’t Take That Away from Me”. Notable contributions from Kenny Dorham on tracks like “My Melancholy Baby” enhance the listening experience.
Alongside the medley, enjoy the beautiful ballad “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Your (Her) Face” and the captivating waltz “Kids Know”. This high quality jazz LP record is a true gem for any serious collector of classic jazz albums on vinyl.
