Charlie Parker Swedish Schnapps (jazz)(flac)[rogercc][h33t]

CHARLIE PARKER SWEDISH SCHNAPPS Label:Verve Format: Flac Recorded in New York, New York on May 5, 1949, January 17, 1951, and August 8, 1951. Musicians like to observe that for all his notoriety as the wellspring of bebop, Charlie "Bird" Parker's music was loaded with the blues. Swedish Schnapps is as good a place as any to make that connection with Parker's music, including as it does two of his most enduring bop heads based on the blues, "Au Privave" and "Blues For Alice." While you wouldn't mistake either composition for a Muddy Waters tune, both relate Bird's off-kilter accents and serpentine melodicism at walking tempos that let you hear what's actually going by, instead of leaving you astonished but bemused. To really drive the point home, there's "K.C. Blues," which finds the altoist at his hollerin' best, and "Lover Man," certainly one of the bluesiest 32-bar standards around. Tracklist 1.
