Chasin' the Bird - Charlie Parker en Californie #[nn]

From Dave Chisholm and Peter Markowski, this Kamiti Légendes release captures the spirit of bebop's greatest voice through a stunning California-sunset cover — a saxophonist stands silhouetted against a blazing golden sun, his instrument sending a flock of white birds soaring into a warm, layered sky above silhouetted palm trees. The imagery is quietly breathtaking, translating the feeling of Parker's music into something you can almost hear just by looking. A graphic biography that wears its subject's soul right there on the cover.
