Charlie Parker turns 100 today and All About Jazz turned 25 two weeks go... pour me a double!

AAJ is doing its part to pay tribute to Bird with a collection of stories by jazz musicians from emerging talents (Brian Landrus) to living legends (Sonny Rollins). Read our tributes here. We plan to collect and post more in the coming weeks. We also encourage you to post to the comments section associated with the article.
