Description
‘Bird and Diz’ is the final collaborative studio recording by two legends in jazz, saxophonist Charlie Parker and trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie. Primarily recorded in 1950, in New York City, it was released in 1952. It was produced by Norman Granz and in a 1952 four-star review of Bird and Diz, a DownBeat magazine columnist wrote of Granz’s contribution to the album’s sound, stating “Though there is no mention of bop in Norman Granz’s notes, we owe him a salvo for reminding us through this LP that this music is still very much alive.”
