The next one is a little trickier because it’s 4 tracks that were released on 78

Now they’re available on The Complete Savoy Studio Sessions - Charlie Parker

What I have, I bought it on cassette when I was in college, is the finished master takes from Parker’s Savoy years. Anyway, the collections these tracks are available on are too long. Like over 3 hours. So courtesy of youtube it’s the Tiny Grimes Quartet playing with Charlie Parker

Ken Burns is a dillbag but I’m still recommending this next:

Ken Burns Jazz: Duke Ellington
Album by Duke Eillington and His Orchestra

Jelly Roll Morton

This is as deep into origins as this list is going to go.

You get a lot of foundation without much effort. Keep in mind this isn’t a history lesson.

What's wrong with Ken Burns?

Not only is free jazz not properly represented but Cecil Taylor is in particular disrespected. Idgaf what the Marsalis brothers think. I often say musicians are the last people you should ask about music because they always have these creative goggles on. Not every musician but in general.

But anyway in the documentary Branford calls Cecil’s music “self indulgent bulls hit” and then some critic concurs.

The f ucking thing about it is Cecil Taylor is (was) the exact opposite. His music, especially live is the most giving and self sacrificing music ever made. Ever. No one ever gave more.

When you make a documentary about jazz you make it clear that Cecil Taylor stands on TOP of the f ucking mountain. Disrespecting Cecil Taylor shows the same lack of understanding as disrespecting Duke Ellington would. So that’s why f uck Ken Burns.

It disgusts me that Cecil probably watched that garbage. PBS and all of them should be embarrassed and ashamed.

The Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz

I have this on vinyl. Bought it when I was in college. If instead of embarking on this whole project I just said listen to this you’d pretty well covered. It might be hard to imagine what this was like back before the internet. A collection like this was indispensable.

Check it out and listen
