Art Pepper Unreleased Art Vol IV The Art History Project

In her liner notes to Volume IV of the Art History Project, Art Pepper's widow describes him as a self-hating, alcoholic sex addict who turned to heroin in order to suppress these tendencies. Second only to Charlie Parker in the DownBeat polls of the day, nobody played alto saxophone as smooth and cool as Art Pepper. Unreleased Art, a three-disc set comprised of two-thirds never-before released material, traces Pepper's life in music from his golden era in the '50s through his prison- interrupted discovery of John Coltrane in the '60s, and concludes with his final period, fresh out of rehab in the '70s and playing as if his life depended on it.

Swing Classics

 


Swing music, also known as swing jazz or simply swing, is a form of jazz music that developed in the early 1930s and became a distinctive style by 1935 in the United States.
Swing uses a strong rhythm section of double bass and drums as the anchor for a lead section of brass instruments such as trumpets and trombones, woodwinds including saxophones and clarinets, and sometimes stringed instruments such as violin and guitar, medium to fast tempos, and a "lilting" swing time rhythm. Swing bands usually featured soloists who would improvise on the melody over the arrangement.
The danceable swing style of bandleaders such as Benny Goodman and Count Basie was the dominant form of American popular music from 1935 to 1945. (wikipedia.org)

Charlie Parker Bird At St Nicks


Charlie Parker attracted young musicians like a magnet.
Among them was trombonist Jimmy Knepper, who, at a time when tape recording was a brand new thing, captured Bird in flight one winter night in Manhattan.He soared and when Charlie Mingus heard the music years later, he issues it as his first release on his new Jazz Workshop label.Since then many private recordings of Parker have been made public. This was one of the first and remains one of the best, a precious musical document
