This here is  the best of what Verve recorded of Bird. Two different great quintets. Because it is pure Bird, pure Bop. Other Verves are too bombastic and like 1950´s love films (Volume 1 Temptation), "Bird and Diz" is a disappointment compared with other Bird-Diz collaborations, "Perennial" would have been okay but without Tommy Turk. The one 1953 session with quartet where they play "I remember you" is a good one....

Saw Alain Jean-Marie in a European rhythm section backing Joe Magnarelli and Dmitry Baevsky in Southport, UK a few years ago, but I've never heard any of his albums.

This one looks promising. Must give it a listen:
