Parker was released from Camarillo State Hospital on January 31, and these recordings
were made at a party at Chuck Kopely's house on February 1. After the party, Ross
Russell renewed Parker's Dial contract and took Kopely's acetate masters and eventually
released them on Dial LP 905.
The sound quality of the first three items is poor. The first two are combined as
a single item (1:49) on Philology. The beginning and the end of the third "Home
Cookin'" are missing on Stash, Spotlite, and Definitive. On all of these items
there are speed fluctuations that are very hard to correct.
"Home Cookin' I" is based on "'S Wonderful," "Home Cookin' II" is based on "Cherokee,"
and "Home Cookin' III" is based on "I Got Rhythm."
