Jazz Library - Charlie Parker
Charlie Parker was the most influential alto saxophonist in jazz history, and in his short life he left hundreds of recordings. So how do you pick the best ones for your collection? In this Jazz Library podcast, Alyn Shipton explores Parker's legacy, and with the help of saxophonist Peter King and Parker's biographer, Brian Priestley, he chooses music from both Parker's live concert recordings and his studio work.
