/// all of what you get here is way fantastic incandescent from bird* and (19 yo) miles \\\
// the latter spanking out 3 timefull classicks: milestones, little willie leaps, half nelson \\
/ but don't disneglect th-bit-o-Diz on KoKo, the tiny grime, the curly Russell, the roach \
etc.
(i know I don't have to ask you to make sure and take note of Mr Charlie Parker).
simply
(b/c this guy is
"impossible to miss"
)
This warn't my first CP record (that would be the soundtrack to the Eastwood bio)
but it was always my favorite post-initial-acquisition, thereabouts 1988 or so, and
i had it for so many years that i took it for granted and lost it a decade ago or so

found it last week abroad during a protracted visit to Amoeba SF
and got shivers down ma spine at me first (re) sight. viola!
there it is. (for some reason it's all "Cheryl" now).
but if you were me, they'd go straight to
Number Twelve: little willie leaps,
and ride far past ah-leu-cha
on the merry-go-round
(note constellation)

or just please
