Dizzy Gillespie Featuring Charlie Parker, Sonny Stitt And Al Haig - The Small Groups 1945 1946 Original Recordings
Review by Nadine Wildmann
The Small Groups 1945-1946 Original Recordings by Dizzy Gillespie Featuring Charlie Parker, Sonny Stitt, and Al Haig is a must-have for any jazz enthusiast. The album showcases the incredible talent of these three musicians and their ability to create some of the most memorable and influential jazz recordings of all time.
From the opening track, "Shaw 'Nuff," to the final notes of "Salt Peanuts," the album is a journey through some of the most groundbreaking jazz of the 20th century. The interplay between Gillespie's trumpet, Parker's saxophone, and Stitt's saxophone is nothing short of mesmerizing, while Haig's piano provides the perfect accompaniment.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Hot House," which features some of the most impressive improvisation and virtuosic playing of the entire recording. The musicians' ability to play off of each other and create something truly unique is a testament to their talent and creativity.
