This newly discovered recording of a November 2, 1949, Carnegie Hall date highlights the torrid, jam-session style that made J.A.T.P. famous. The frontline is awesome: alto saxophonists Charlie Parker and a young Sonny Criss; Flip Phillips on tenor sax; trombonist Tommy Turk and trumpeter Fats Navarro. Backed by drummer Buddy Rich, pianist Hank Jones, and bassist Ray Brown, this group lays down the real mainstream deal. Nat "King" Cole's "Leap Here," and the standards "Lover Come Back to Me" and "Indiana" are injected with some zesty bebop licks by Parker, Criss, and Navarro. On "The Things We Did Last Summer," the trumpeter shines in balladeer mode. Special guest Coleman Hawkins, with his towering tenor sax tones, turns in a masterful rendition of Duke Ellington's "Sophisticated Lady," and he swings down the house on the Thelonious Monk-ish "Rifftide." The less than desired sound quality is wonderfully counterbalanced by the group's superb musicianship. --Eugene Holley Jr. Review: Fascinating window into a transitional time in jazz. - There's so much great music on this cd. But what I find fascinating about it is hearing the changing of the guard taking place in jazz in the course of one concert. Interestingly, Bird doesn't get the crowed worked up, although he clearly plays better than Flip Phillips, who does get the crowd going. Bird does his astounding thing, without whoops, skronks or honks, and time perhaps can judge it better than the listeners at Carnegie Hall. Also wonderful is Coleman Hawkins, who, in the second half of the concert, presents a gorgeous clinic in the old school stuff. One of the best JAPT's. Review: Good Groove - Indiana is actually Fat's - Ice Freezes Red, a good medium tune based on Back Home In Indiana. And yes, Shelly Manne from Brooklyn is the drummer not Buddy Rich. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00005Y1SW | | Best Sellers Rank | #217,789 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #915 in Contemporary Big Band #972 in Classic Big Band #3,666 in Bebop (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (22) | | Date First Available | November 17, 2006 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 1668186 | | Label | Pablo | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Pablo | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2002 | | Product Dimensions | 5.63 x 0.37 x 4.96 inches; 3.2 ounces | ## Images ![Jazz At The Philharmonic At Carnegie Hall, 1949 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71f+lLWeXKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fascinating window into a transitional time in jazz. *by M***R on January 30, 2020* There's so much great music on this cd.
