The sound quality is very poor throughout, but there's a full Parker and Jackson
solo on "How High the Moon" (faded out during Gillespie solo). Parker's solo on
"52nd Street Theme" is intact, but not much else.
The engagement at Billy Berg's Club lasted from December 10 until February 3, 1946.
After it finished, Parker remained in California while the rest of the group returned
to New York.
