What an amazing record that is! Bird was billed as Charlie Chan cause of contractual reasons. A Night In Tunisia is mind-blowing on that record, too.

the following clip is of two drumming masters, playing “salt peanuts” with brushes!

maynard ferguson had some great ‘salt peanuts’ quotes on a live record of his from 1983.

i always loved playing this or quoting it in ‘trading’, with various jazz combos i’ve worked with.

the ‘massey hall’ performance w/ bird, diz, bud, mingus & max is historically great!
