vol. 4
Volume four of "Young Bird," the Masters of Jazz label's six-part chronological survey of Charlie Parker's first seven years as a recording artist, is a 20-track chronological sampler of his creative activity between May 25 and September 4, 1945. It opens with three gorgeous ballads sung by Sarah Vaughan (originally issued on Continental 78 rpm records) backed by the Dizzy Gillespie Sextet. "Sweet Georgia Brown" was performed by the Charlie Parker Sextet (with tenor saxophonist Don Byas, pianist Al Haig, bassist Curly Russell, and drummer Stan Levey) at Lincoln Square in New York City on May 30, 1945. "Blue 'n' Boogie" was performed by the Dizzy Gillespie Quintet (same rhythm section with Bird, Diz and vibraphonist Red Norvo) at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia on June 5, 1945. The following day Bird and Diz participated in a Dial recording date at the WOR studios as members of Red Norvo's Selected Sextet, along with tenor saxophonist Flip Phillips, pianist Teddy Wilson, bassist Slam Stewart, and drummer Gordon "Specs" Powell. This session resulted in such excellent music that the inclusion of alternate takes (including no less than five renditions of the "Congo Blues") should be regarded as a delectable treat rather than an inconvenience. Apparently, in order to make room for the extra takes, the producers of this compilation omitted the Bird and Diz Town Hall concert of June 22, 1945, skipping instead to three sides cut for Apollo records on September 4, 1945 by pianist Sir Charles Thompson and His All Stars. This marvelous band teamed Bird with trumpeter Buck Clayton, tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon, guitarist Danny Barker, bassist Jimmy Butts, and drummer J.C. Heard. Here then is what Charlie Parker sounded like when he was 24 going on 25 years of age. The opportunity to study what he and his fellow innovators were accomplishing at the crossroads of swing and bop makes this a particularly rewarding installment in the Masters of Jazz series.

vol. 5
The Masters of Jazz label is dedicated to the presentation of historic recordings arranged either in exacting chronological sequence or carefully selected so as to avoid including material that has been reissued over and over again by other labels. Young Bird, Vol. 5: 1945-1946 deftly dishes out 19 recordings made between December 1945 and March 1946 without including any Dial or Jazz at the Philharmonic material. This makes for an exciting ride as Charlie Parker sits in on a series of blowing sessions beginning with a very pleasant Savoy date led by Slim Gaillard; the band includes Dizzy Gillespie, Jack McVea, Dodo Marmarosa, Bam Brown, and Zutty Singleton, and the listener is treated to second takes of "Dizzy's Boogie" and "Flat Foot Floogie." Bird is heard with several different bands under the nominal leadership of Dizzy Gillespie, including an AFRS Jubilee show at the NBC Studios in Hollywood and a WEAF radio broadcast from Billy Berg's Supper Club. Parker performs with his own Quintet at the Finale Club in L.A. and finally alongside fellow alto saxophonists Benny Carter and Willie Smith with the Nat King Cole Trio, which included on this occasion drummer Buddy Rich. Here then is a Charlie Parker collection that touches upon a whole series of historic performances, some of which have seldom been made available to the public.

vol. 6
These pivotal bop sessions feature Bird with two versions of Barry Ulanov-organized all-star bands and the classic Parker/Gillespie quintet. All of the tracks express the advancement of the harmonic jazz evolution, and therefore are essential listening, even if the production values are a bit thin. But most precious are contributions from the unsung heroes of the movement — clarinetist John LaPorta, pianist Lennie Tristano, and especially the wonderful tenor saxophonist Allen Eager. Recommended, especially to novices.
