Video: Many Faces of Bird

Over the course of two weeks at the Wiltern Thetare in Los Angeles in 1987, seven musicians and a singer performed a tribute to Charlie Parker. Called The Many Faces of Bird, the band featured Richie Cole, Lee Konitz, James Moody and Bud Shank (as); Lou Levy (p); Monty Budwig (b); John Guerin (d) and Bobby McFerrin (vcl). Here are two video clips from that event:
