Our Take

When it comes to jazz legends, Charlie Parker is undoubtedly at the top of the list. The second volume of his Integrale series, "Now's The Time", takes us back to the golden era of 1945-1946, showcasing Parker's unparalleled talent and innovation.

From the moment the first notes of "Ko-Ko" hit your ears, you are transported to a world where bebop reigns supreme. The fiery tempos, intricate melodies, and Parker's virtuosic saxophone playing all come together to create a truly enthralling listening experience.

Tracks like "Billie's Bounce" and "Now's The Time" are a testament to Parker's impeccable sense of rhythm and phrasing, while slower ballads like "Lover Man" showcase his ability to convey raw emotion through his music.

The album captures the energy and passion that Parker brought to every performance, making it a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts and newcomers alike. So grab a glass of whisky, dim the lights, and let Charlie Parker take you on a mesmerizing journey through the heart and soul of jazz. Trust us, you won't regret it.
