CD Reviews

Glorious and mostly unheard music

Jonathan Trigg | Louisiana | 08/13/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If your love bird you must get this - very rare material which really brings out aspects of his playing which the standard release material misses. An extraordinary historical document - I'm going to learn a whole bunch of perfect pre-bop bird solos - what a thrill!"
