This ten-track CD features Charlie Parker playing some of the best-known bebop compositions. This compilation is a good introduction to Parker’s staggering improvisational ability and interpretation, but the low-budget release lacks any explanatory liner notes. There are much better recordings of these songs on significantly superior albums.

Grade: C+.
