very interesting new fact, torsten.

i now the website of orkesterjournalen, but itīs only in swedish and
so not helpful for the rest of the world:-) (i think they have a few
interesting aricles about bird in sweden there!?) do you know if
there is any english translation of orkesterjournalen?
more questions: what kind of band was jack philipsī? any recordings
avaiable? do you know (about) a photo with parker and roy
eldridge "outside walking in the snow" during their sweden tour? i
donīt remember that source in the moment but iīm searchin for years
for that photo. and at last: where is the concert recording from
konserthuset, stockholm from monday, november 20,1950??? btw, hereīs
a link for a day by day chronology from bird in sweden (in swedish
and english) - very interesting facts!
