Is this one as good as everyone says????

Sounded really good the first time through!  I'd initially held off on buying it, because I've already got so much live Woody from the late 1970s/early 80s... but on the basis of the glowing notices here, I decided to go ahead and snag it.  And do not regret doing so!

Yeah - always liked it and them since my student days, great songs with the usual very high level of musicianship. It bombed in the UK when punk was at its height. Overseas they knew better..

Great Hipgnosis cover too..plus you get a couple of nice vocals by Clare Torey and Lesley Duncan.

Charlie Parker - At the Open Door (Ember). Fabulous playing by Bird. I had never noticed until today that this two-CD set is less than 70 minutes long - both CDs together, I mean.

Charlie Parker -- Complete Dial Sessions (Stash). The session with J.J. Johnson.

Jimmy Giuffre - New York Concerts (Elemental). Disc two.

Charlie Parker - Bird in Boston: Live at the Hi-Hat Vol. 2 (Fresh Sound).

Yes, they could have made the Open Door recordings a one CD set. Normally that might bother me, but the music is great enough that I didn't mind paying for 2 CDs.
