Recorded Live at Monmouth Battlefield State Park, New Jersey Summer Festival 1987
Dizzy Gillespie (tp), John Lee (b), Ignacio Berroa (d), Sam Rivers (cl), Ed Cherry (g)
If Charlie Parker was the soul of bebop, Dizzy Gillespie was its heart and public face. His speed, articulation and sense of surprise took many forms in many bebop trumpet players, but few doubted that Gillespie was the master and matrix of it all. Catch Dizzy here in an unforgetable performance at the 1987 New Jersey Festival. |
