CHARLIE PARKER Dial LP
Original Album from 1950
Offered is an original pressing of DIAL 904 - "COLLECTORS' ITEMS - THIRTEEN MASTERS PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED" - by CHARLIE PARKER, released 1950. This super-rare record and jacket are in VERY GOOD condition, looks and plays remarkably well for it's extreme age.
DIAL RECORDS was founded in 1946 in Hollywood by Ross Russell, the owner of a small music shop. Dial was short-lived, but became one of the most important independent labels for the new bop music - and the big sound of Charlie Parker.
Russell was inspired of Milt Gabler´s Commodore concept in New York of a store-based jazz record label. He was a jazzfan since many years and a serious collector of old 78s from the twenties.
Charlie Parker took part in seven of the total 16 sessions Russell arranged between 1946-1948. These recordings were originally issued on 78s, but Dial was among the first to produce 33 rpm jazz albums. This 12" LP album is a fine example of that.
