Bird Up: The Originals, the companion disc to Bird Up: The Charlie Parker Remix Project, contains 11 remastered tracks recorded between 1945 and 1948. Even though the running time could be longer, this budget disc sounds great and is highly recommended to those unfamiliar with the brilliant bebop saxophonist and his equally apt cohorts, including Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Max Roach, Red Norvo, and John Lewis. While the Remix Project is interesting, this edition of Bird Up is the real thing.
