ok, i haven’t actually been listening to this one like crazy.  i was, however, listening* to a great 1964 charlie parker tribute that echinops seeded on dime, and that got me pulling out the few charlie parker shows that i have for a relisten, including this one, which was (re?)seeded by u014945 after high hiss reduction + click pop elimination
* yes in my car again; i don’t actually drive much, would you believe

lineage:  wcop broadcast > ? > “the bird you never heard” (stash stcd 10) > eac > flac (secure mode) + checksum by amellowsoul > dime > cool edit pro (high hiss reduction + click pop eliminator ) > tlh( sbe – flac (8)) > dime

in his latter career, bird was a free agent, and bands were made of local musicians backing him up.

none of these songs are from the offical release, “bird at the high hat” on blue note.
the dates used on that were from 1953-12-19 and 1954-01-24.
