The first jazz be-bop musician to play the baritone sax, Leo Parker was a rising force in the be-bop community of the late 1940's and might have become a huge star had not a drug addiction derailed his career and eventually claim his life at the age of 36. With a sound that wedded gospel drenched R&B with the advanced harmonies of be-bop, Parker's style and flawless technique became a prime inspiration for scores of young be-boppers to come. The first five tracks presented here were recorded in Chicago in August of 1953 with an unidentified rhythm section; the remaining tracks are from a July, 1951 Chicago session featuring Parker's baritone with Eddie Johnson on tenor sax; Claude Jones on piano (organ on "Candlelight Serenade"); Johnny Pate bass and Al Williams on drums. All selections have been newly remastered.
Tracklist:
- Anything Can Happen
- Tippin' Lightly
- Blue Sails
