Our Take

Jolly good day, chaps and chapettes! Today we're diving into the jazzy world of the one and only Charlie Parker as he takes on the timeless tunes of Cole Porter. And let me tell you, this Yellow Vinyl edition is like a refreshing cuppa on a rainy London day.

From the get-go, Parker's saxophone skills are on full display, weaving effortlessly through Porter's sophisticated melodies. Tracks like "Night and Day" and "I Get a Kick Out of You" are given new life with Parker's bebop twist, making them swing like never before.

But what really sets this album apart are the four bonus tracks included in this special edition. Parker's improvisational prowess shines on these extra tunes, leaving listeners wondering how one man could make a saxophone sound so darn cool.

The Yellow Vinyl adds an extra touch of nostalgia to the already timeless music, making it the perfect companion for a night in with a glass of bubbly or a jaunt through the bustling streets of Soho.

So, if you're in the mood for a toe-tapping good time, look no further than "CHARLIE PARKER Plays Cole Porter." It's a jazzy journey through the Golden Age of music that will leave you humming along for weeks to come. Cheers, old sport!
