I’m sad to say that I only own one Charlie Parker CD, and I’d like to add one or two more. I’m especially looking for a CD (if one exists) that’s mainly his bluesy, soulful small-band playing, as opposed to his up-tempo driving bop (but if you can suggest one of those too that would be great). So doper jazz fans, any recommendations?

Thank you in advance.
