Views: 1646 |  |  |  |  | Bird is a 1988 American biographical film, produced and directed by Clint Eastwood with the screenplay written by Joel Oliansky.

It is constructed as a collage of scene ...More s from Parker's life, from his childhood in Kansas City, through his marriage to Chan Richardson, to his early death at the age of thirty-four. Forest Whitaker's performance as Parker earned him the Best Actor award at the 1988 Cannes Film Festival and a Golden Globe nomination. In addition, the film also won an Academy Award for Best Sound. Bird and Lover Man "A recording for the Dial label from July 29, 1946, provides evidence of his condition. Prior to this session, Parker drank about a quart of whiskey. According to the liner notes of Charlie Parker on Dial Volume 1, Parker missed most of the first two bars of his first chorus on the track, "Max Making Wax." When he finally did come in, he swayed wildly and once spun all the way around, going badly off mic. On the next tune, "Lover Man", producer Ross Russell physically supported Parker in front of the microphone. On "Bebop" (the final track Parker recorded that evening) he begins a solo with a solid first eight bars.

~ Howard Roberts_Relaxin' At Camarillo
Views: 1048 |  |  |  |  | Personnel: Howard Roberts (guitar); Bill Holman (tenor saxophone); Pete Jolly (piano); Red Mitchell (bass guitar); Stan Levy (drums); Marty Paich. West Coast guitarist Howard Roberts was something of an unsung hero of that area's jazz scene. Though his bo ...More p-influenced style of cool jazz was tremendously influential, Roberts himself was content to spend the bulk of his career working mainly on the Los Angeles session circuit, where one of his numerous recordings was the eerie theme to THE TWILIGHT ZONE. 1959's GOOD PICKIN'S is an early Roberts effort that finds him performing both original "head" arrangements and bop and pop standards like "Relaxin' At Camarillo" and "All the Things You Are." Demonstrating a fluid, creative style, as well as an obvious affinity for Charlie Parker, Roberts moves easily from the bebop stylings of "Will You Still Be Mine" to the bluesy "Lover Man," aided by the sympathetic accompaniment of his band, which includes his longtime colleague, pianist Pete Jolly, and legendary bop drummer Stan Levey. |
