[no significant wear to book; the jacket is lightly edgeworn, with minor damage and slight dog-earing to upper corners]. (B&W photogaphs) Extensive photographic coverage (including reproduction of numerous full contact sheets) of a legendary recording session that took pl…ace in Hollywood on June 17, 1952, and featured the legendary jazz saxophonist Charlie (Bird) Parker, who died just a few years later. Esther Bubley had been a successful freelance photographer since the mid-1940s, often working on assignment for such magazines as Life and Ladies Home Journal; this particular opportunity, however, was not a formal engagement but rather came about through her acquaintance with art director David Stone Martin. Martin, who had been hired by producer Norman Granz to create the cover art for the albums that resulted from this session (there were two), had a chance meeting with Bubley, who was visiting L.A., at her hotel's swimming pool, and asked her to come along and photograph the session, with nothing more in mind than for her to capture images that he might then be able to use as the basis for his artwork. Because of the informality of the arrangement, Bubley's photos were apparently never published or used commercially, they remained "undiscovered" in the record company's archives for the next forty years or so. (The text of the book, FYI, is entirely in French, and certainly contains much more information about how and when the photos were unearthed and prepared for publication than was contained in the small bit I translated.) The book was never published in an English-language edition, one result being that all copies for sale online at the present time are from European or British sellers -- except this one, of course; govern yourself accordingly. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this heavy oversize book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
