About this listen
Charlie Parker didn’t just play the alto sax — he detonated it. With a mind moving faster than the beat and a soul caught between genius and destruction, “Bird” carved a new path through the chaos of jazz, birthing bebop in the smoke and fury of postwar America. In this episode, we trace his meteoric rise, the pain beneath the virtuosity, and how his broken wings still cast a towering shadow over modern music.
