- For John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie, playing in a small combo was never enough. ... Given that the final 75 percent of his career took place after 1950, when big band jazz no longer predominated, it’s remarkable that Dizzy Gillespie often created brilliant Jazz using grand-scale Big Bands and Orchestras right up to the end of his life in 1993. ...

15. Dizzy Gillespie: Odyssey: 1945-1952 - PopMatters Music Review
- www.popmatters.com
- DIZZY GILLESPIE .
- Dizzy Gillespie is one of the most important figures in jazz, period. An innovative and original trumpet player, prolific composer, musical visionary, generous teacher and confidante of other musicians, Gillespie listened carefully to music wherever he found it, sought to understand it, and often incorporated it into his own work. ... Because of his sense of humor and his trademark beret and goatee (and later his upward-tipped horn bell), Gillespie was often thought of as a jester by the general public. Few who are not jazz devotees realize that Gillespie later moved on to work with Latin-flavored jazz and big bands that didn't sound much like his groundbreaking work with Parker. ...
- Gillespie himself didn't seem to worry much about the credit he did or didn't get for the bop revolution: "History avenges itself, and this is history, the history of music," he once said. ... " The fact is, without Gillespie's tireless efforts to promote bebop to the public and to help other musicians understand what he and Parker were doing, bebop may very well have been seen as an aberration and ignored. The evidence on Savoy Jazz' three-CD set Dizzy Gillespie: Odyssey 1945-1952 certainly supports the argument that Dizzy was an innovator, and masterful trumpet player, and a man who was unlikely to sit still and rest on his laurels. ...
- The first group of sessions on this set are credited to the Dizzy Gillespie Sextet and the Dizzy Gillespie All Star Quintet. ... Tracks two through eight all feature Parker along with Gillespie and pure bop rhythm sections that include, variously, Slam Stewart, Cozy Cole, pianist Al Haig, and Sid Catlett. ...
- Gillespie had a hand in the composition of most of these classic tunes -- "Groovin' High", "Dizzy Atmosphere", "Salt Peanuts", and "Shaw 'Nuff". ...
- Of course, hearing Parker's solos again is a blast of fresh air as well, and the real balance between Parker and Gillespie is very much in evidence here. Gillespie's ability to play high notes and create dramatic runs sometimes obscure the fact that he is playing solos every bit as harmonically complex as Parker's, but the two musicians are obviously very much in synch, the perfect musical team. ...
- "Interlude (A Night in Tunisia)", recorded by the Boyd Raeburn Orchestra, is a sharp big band arrangement by Gillespie, who also plays the only notable solo. ... These are a lot of fun, and both Gillespie and Parker can be heard thoroughly enjoying themselves on these dates. ...
- Though the first 10 tracks are recorded in 1946, not long after the first public exposure to bebop, Gillespie is already moving into new territory, attempting to fuse the energy and harmonic twists of bop to the big band format. This was something Gillespie never ceased to do, as big bands were in his blood. ... The first six tracks on Disc Two feature the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band, which was later signed to RCA Victor and recorded until early 1950. After that Gillespie never had another permanent big band, though there were some tours. ...
