Wood Flute Songs: Anthology/Live 2006-2012

Read "Wood Flute Songs: Anthology/Live 2006-2012" reviewed by Mark Corroto


A box set that includes over nine hours of one musician's output could be considered indulgent. Indulgent yes, unless that musician's last name is Parker. Certainly the family of Parker we're talking about includes the bebop innovator Charlie Parker, free jazz saxophonist Evan Parker, and jazz padrone William Parker . The latter Parker is a bassist, ...
