MUSIC IS MY RELIGION - To Charlie (Bird) Parker
9 Comment Share
Charlie Parker (1920-1955), famously called Bird, was an American Bebop Jazz Saxophonist. Sadly, he died young of drugs. He once said: "Music is my religion". On that Soulful note, JBBQ understands. For the CBC 11/26/11 SongFest @ SC- 10PM/UK.

Really fine tribute to Bird and do I hear a Coltrane influence in there too - - all that jazz is cool!

Yes the sax is sublime, the drumming is dreamy, but its the grooving piano in the background that I'm liking the most. Love the dischords and rhythms. Great stuff.
