Review

This Collectables compilation features early performances of Bird, from Dial and other places. The music is top-notch, and the recording quality is a bit better than on the Rhino collection, but not much. There are many other Bird collections that are far better than this one. Be wary. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide
