>>>BLACK EXCELLENCE BOOK CLUB - CHASIN THE BIRD
>> SATURDAY, JUNE 24th at 4PM on FACEBOOK LIVE!
Fantom Comics and Pop Culture Uncovered proudly present another installment in the Black Excellence Book Club series.
The graphic novel tells the story of Bird's time in L.A. starting in December 1945, where Bird and Dizzy Gillespie brought frenetic sounds of bebop from the East Coast jazz underground to the West Coast for a two-month residency at Billy Berg's Hollywood jazz club. This marked the beginning of a tumultuous two year-stint for Bird bumming around L.A., showing up at jam sessions, crashing on people's couches, causing havoc in public places, and recording some of his most groundbreaking tracks, 'A Night in Tunisia' and 'Ornithology,' as well as 'Relaxin' At Camarillo,' inspired by the end of his time in SoCal at the Camarillo State Hospital. The novel explores Bird's relationship with the characters and events he encountered during his time in L.A. including recording some of his signature songs with Dial Record founder Ross Russell, a brief but influential stay at the home of famed jazz photographer William Claxton, a party for the ages at the ranch home of artist Jirayr Zorthian, and others who found themselves in the orbit of the jazz genius. Featuring a Flexi Disk of Unreleased Charlie Parker Recordings
