Announcement (Symphony Sid Torin) 0:47 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes: - A very good recording for this period with only some light hiss and sparing crackle mostly noticeable during announcements and between audio portions. The dynamic range is somewhat compressed. The tracks run continuously from beginning to end. Last track cuts off on announcer’s outro. - Peter Losin notes, "The first of the weekly broadcasts of the Parker Quintet from the Royal Roost. Parker began a four-month engagement at the Royal Roost on December 9; the gig ran through March 12, 1949, though as it turned out, Davis didn't stay long." Kenny Dorham replaced Miles Davis on trumpet in Charlie Parker's Quintet starting with the December 25, 1948 Royal Roost show and throughout the remainder of the Quintet's Royal Roost run. However, Miles was to reappear at the Royal Roost in early 1949 as part of Tadd Dameron's Big Ten line-up. - Notes courtesy Peter Losin, http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/
