With a sound that wedded gospel drenched R\u0026amp;B with the advanced harmonies of be-bop, Parker's style and flawless technique became a prime inspiration for scores of young be-boppers to come. The first five tracks presented here were recorded in Chicago in August of 1953 with an unidentified rhythm section; the remaining tracks are from a July, 1951 Chicago session featuring Parker's baritone with Eddie Johnson on tenor sax; Claude Jones on piano (organ on \"Candlelight Serenade\"); Johnny Pate bass and Al Williams on drums. All selections have been newly remastered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Anything Can Happen \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Tippin' Lightly \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Blue Sails \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Smoke Gets in Your Eyes \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Smoke Gets in Your Eyes (Dub in) \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Candlelight Serenade \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Hornet \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Leo's Blues\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
