Synopsis

Album Description
When the great Charlie Parker picked a young white guy named Al Haig asthe pianist for his quintet in 1946, a lot of people were surprised. However, Haigwas one of the very first pianists to follow the trend started by Bud Powell, andhis technique, style and impeccable taste earned him the right to be in Parker'sgroup. In his last years (he died in 1982) he would make more than a dozen albums. Two of these LPs - both of which were recorded in 1977 - have been compiled here.
