I've been able to catch Phil Schaap's Birdflight the last couple of times I've been downstate, and it has gotten under my skin. I can't imagine when I'd listen to it, but I still can't help wanting The Complete Dean Benedetti Recordings. It is the sort of thing that record collectors just crave, I guess. I will content myself with my present holdings for the moment-- the good news about getting the Charley Parker itch is that scratching it requires concentration. It's just not music that can be played as wallpaper, and the concentraiton it commands is rewarded.
