Description
The rare original pressing of Charlie Parker "Bird on 52nd Street" on the green and silver labels of Jazz Workshop JW-501. Aside from two inaudible marks on Side A, the playing surface appears to be in near-new condition - bright and clean. (It should be noted that the audio quality of JW-501 does not meet today's standards by any means. A Parker fan made the recording during the spring, l948 engagement. However, the importance of the recording cannot be overstated, particularly with these personnel.) The original cover is also in superb condition, with just slight foxing at the bottom of the back, and two inked initials "EC" at the top right corner of the back, in the white area. Personnel includes Miles Davis, Duke Jordan, and Max Roach.
