Product Description
Contents: This record label was founded in 1961 by Doris Parker, Charlie Parker's third wife and legal heir, and Aubrey Mayhew, producer at Pickwick Records, known for its reissue (repack) series of Sachord recordings. It was established to release Parker's unreleased recordings that had been dormant since his death, but it also produced new recordings of modern jazz of the time. Works such as Duke Jordan's "Blues on a Dangerous Liaison" and Cecil Payne's "Connection" are particularly well-known to jazz fans. The label also acquired recordings from other companies and released them as its own, including rare albums by Art Pepper and Pete Jolly. Therefore, it is a noteworthy label from the golden age of modern jazz, containing many albums beyond Parker's works, making it a must-have for jazz fans.
