It's impossible to grasp the complete scope of trumpeter, bandleader, composer, and showman Dizzy Gillespie's influence on jazz. However, this companion release to Ken Burns' PBS documentary Jazz is an admirable attempt, providing a brief glimpse of Dizzy's pioneering bebop and Afro-Cuban jazz brilliance on a single 16-track disc. The disc captures his early sideman career with Cab Calloway's orchestra in 1940 and four years later with Coleman Hawkins' orchestra. The remaining tracks showcase Dizzy coming into his own on classic bebop compositions "Salt Peanuts," "A Night in Tunisia," "Dizzy Atmosphere," "Groovin' High," "Manteca," and "Bloomdido." Also included is "The Eternal Triangle," a 1957 blowing date with Sonny Rollins and Sonny Stitt on Verve. The disc concludes in 1967 with Dizzy hamming it up on "Swing Low, Sweet Cadillac," the humorous take on "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." While Dizzy Gillespie's history can't be summed up on a single disc, the highlights on Ken Burns Jazz should make the novice listener interested enough to continue searching out more material. But this series includes nothing that the aficionado doesn't already have. ~ Al Campbell Producer: Ben Young (Compilation) Musical Guests Cab Calloway Sonny Rollins Thelonious Monk Sonny Stitt Coleman Hawkins Kenny Burrell Charlie Parker Kenny Clarke   Compilation Appearances Voodoo Complete Cole Porter Songbooks Complete Jazz At The Philharmo Girl From Ipanema-Jobim Songb Complete Gershwin Songbooks Wave-The Antonio Carlos Jobim 1946 Changing The Tune Vol. 1-Adventures Of Bread & B Vol. 5-Priceless Jazz Sampler Bebop Singers Masters Of Jazz Sampler Talented Mr. Ripley Instrumental History Of Jazz Seductive Nights Romantic Jazz Ken Burns Jazz-Story Of America Ken Burns Jazz Ken Burns Jazz Jazz Live From New York Usa All Stars In Berlin 1955 Cool Jazz For Hot Nights / Various Harlem Saturday Night Classic Jazz Jazzlegends Savoy At 60 Stardust Collection (Limited Edition) Best Of Jazz Birth Of Be Bop Most Relaxing Jazz Music In The Universe Bop Lives American Splendor Verve Unmixed 2 Nicky's Jazz For Kids Award Winning Original Artists Nea Jazz Masters Panorama: trumpet Prism Divine Lady Of Song Bebop 1 Bebop 2 Bebop 3 A-Z Encyclopedia Of Ja696 Jazz Bar Vol 2 This Is The Dirty Doz0405 Big Band Swing Basquiat's Journey Through Jazz Impulsive Re-bop: The Savoy Remixes 20 Best Of Jazz (Dig) Cafe Jazz Simply Jazz Jazz In The City 25 Best:jazz Legends Bossa Friends Bird In Time:1940-1947 Lift Every Voice Honoring The African Everything I Have Is Yours   Associated Artists and Works Artists, Various The Gifted Ones ~ Basie, Count Byas, Don Byas, Don Carter, Benny Carter, Benny (Sax) After Hours ~ Christian, Charlie Cobb, Arnett Eckstine, Billy Eldridge, Roy Eldridge, Roy The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner ~ Eldridge, Roy Eldridge, Roy Eldridge, Roy For Musicians Only ~ Getz Getz Verve Jazz Masters 25 ~ Getz, Stan Getz, Stan Getz, Stan Dedicated To Diz ~ Hampton, Slide Hidalgo, Giovanni Horn, Shirley Lilian Terry McPartland, Marian The Weapon / At Home and Abroad ~ Newman, David "Fathead" The Weapon/At Home and Abroad ~ Newman, David "Fathead" (Sax) Bird & Diz [Remaster] ~ Parker, Charlie Jazz at Massey Hall ~ Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Diz 'N Bird At Carnegie Hall ~ Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Parker, Charlie Peterson, Oscar Peterson, Oscar Peterson, Oscar Raeburn, Boyd Roach, Max Stuff Smith-Dizzy Gillespie-Oscar Peterson ~ Smith, Stuff Stuff Smith/Dizzy Gillespie/Oscar Peterson ~ Smith, Stuff (Jazz) Terry, Lilian Torme, Mel The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner ~ Turner, Big Joe Turner, Big Joe Various Artists Various Artists Various Artists   Technical Info Release Date : 11/07/2000 Original Release Date : 2000 Catalog ID : 549086 Label : Verve (USA) Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Mixed SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00731454908627    Product Image
