Charlie Parker: Complete Verve Master Takes: 3-CD Box Set torrent

There's nothing fancy about this release - except Charlie Parker’s saxophone playing.

On this 3-CD Set you'll find all 73 studio master takes Bird recorded for Verve, ranging from a 1947 date to Parker's last recording in 1954. It's all here, from his first Verve side, “The Bird”, to his last side, “I Love Paris”.

It is 24-carat from start to finish, some of most exciting jazz recorded up to the mid-1950s or since.
