Charlie Parker with Woody Herman - Four Brothers descargar videos gratis

Trilaterus.com

according to a biography of Woody Herman, on the first chorus, Parker had really not heard the changes before. He did not use any music. Now this tune has some unusual modulations on the bridge. It is interesting to hear that Parker lays out so he can learn the changes. Then by the second or third chorus, he has it.

I don't get all the negative comments.. I love hearing any/all mistakes from the legends. Who cares.. that's why jazz is so awesome.. You never know what can happen. This was still an amazing performance regardless. And as much as I love the Bird, some of his really long extensive solos would get a little tedious to listen to. But the stuff like this I absolutely love.

Second herd with Getz and Cohn is where I'm at.

Is it just me or does the sax section sound a little loaded on that head?

Allan EAGER

Four Brothers with Charlie Parker and Woody Herman in July 1951, Kansas City. The reed section: Charlie Parker (as) Dick Hafer, Bill Perkins, Kenny Pinson (ts) Sam Staff (bar).

Grant Koeller

Bird was the master. He was listening to the changes to the bridge, then after fully absorbing, he blows one of the greatest solos in the history of Jazz...

Dag Retsö

The heading sounded better than the track. Historically interesting but prefer Cohn-Sims-Getz-Chaloff 1947.

Norbert Girigorie

The ability here is to stop, listen to the music and step back in. Thats the sign of a pro a master,

According to a post on the website Jazzwax dick haffer said parker was home in Kansas with his mother so he was clean of drugs he just didn't know the changes and he really didn't rehearse the other sax lines but he clearly played changes

Caponsacchi: Dizzy wrote 'Woody'n' you' for his manager Woody Shaw.

No one could get close to Parkers improv skill then and now.

All of you musical idiots failed to mention one thing. Charlie Parker will be remembered long after his impromptu performance with the Herd. If he had been ultimately judged on a live radio performance, that wasn't even released until the late 70's,and wasn't even a recording date.....then you might have a chance at taking a swipe of one of the 20th century's greatest jazz giants.I'm positive that if Woody's band members hadn't been playing this number since 1947..the bridge of Jimmy Giuffre's most famous composition would have given them more trouble than it did Bird. Parker... If anything,could master any set of changes,as well as change the key in mid solo! So,before you demonize him on one recorded appearance..I suggest you listen to his catalogue!

Dana Danarosana

Nobody on here seems to be able to accept that Bird was a human being. Was this his best performance? No. Is it better than a lot of others you've heard? Yes. Geeesh!! Give him a break!

Richard Salvucci

He didn't know the changes according to Dick Hafer. And Hafer said he was clean--because he was home with his Mother.

Peter Palaj

He must be high on this for sure, he would blow the shit out of the bridge if he was sober.

Ricardo da Mata

I didn't know they played togheter.
