This recording from the budget label Alamac finds Charlie Parker in brilliant form playing with a small group filled with talented young Swedish players (including trumpeter Rolf Ericson). Unfortunately the poor recording quality of this live performance lowers the rating quite a bit although listeners who really love Bird will want this one (Scott Yanow/AllMusic).

Track listing:

A1 Anthropology
A2 Scrapple Fron The Apple
A3 Embraceable You
A4 Cool Blues
