![]() Comparing Prices... Customer ReviewsA must for any bebop fan - By: Michael Morey, 23 Jan 2010![]() A great bargain! All my Charlie Parker recordings are on old LPs so it is good to have this cd collection. I only have two minor gripes: no sleeve notes (but hey, at this price!) & the playlist appearingin Windows Media Player is not as on the cd/cd cover. Many thanks to Sleepy Pete, the first reviewer, for his sessionography, which I have printed out & keep as sleeve notes. Very good package - By: Nik C, 10 Oct 2008 ![]() It is a very good package & after looking for it for a while (and finding it) I am very happy with it. Excellent musicin a no frills offer! amazing - By: Mrs. S. A. Carter, 04 Dec 2007 ![]() Bought this for myself, & my 16 year old son & his mate have borrowed it & play it all the time, they think it's 'really cool'. Just shows good music has appeal for all age ranges. Bargain? Understatement of the Year!!! - By: Sleepy Pete, 01 Dec 2007 ![]() To call this a bargain is a massive understatement. I'm a recent newcomer to jazz, & decided I'd dip my toein the Charlie Parker ocean with this, having read previous reviews. It was an absolute gem of a discovery.
