notes

With Miles Davis, Al Haig, Roy Haynes, Duke Jordan, Tommy Potter, Max Roach and Red Rodney.

Compilation of two previously released live albums: "Bird on 52nd Street" (tracks 1 to 14) and "Bird at St. Nick's" (tracks 15 to 27). Take 2 of "This Time's The Dream's On Me" is omitted from the CD reissue due to time constraints.

Liner notes by Ralph J. Gleason

"This is not a high-fidelity album. The historical importance of this album transcends fidelity of sound." - Small print disclaimer on front cover
