Liew:   Do you actually happen to have any of those live performances
of Salt Peanuts that you mentioned below?   If so, I'd be very happy
to pay you a few dollars for your trouble if you could possibly put
any of them onto a cassette for me!   I purchased the 1953 Massey
version but that still doesn't seem to be the one I remember hearing
on the radio.  And the 1947 Carnegie Hall version includes Dizzy, but
not Charlie!  

--- Thanks,

Paul Miller (forlino@...)

record of a version at that time or place?? Perhaps you are referring
to the Massey Hall concert?  It begins with Parker saying, "At this
time we would like to play a new tune. It was composed by my worthy
constituent, Mr Dizzy Gillespie in the year of 1942.  We sincerely
hope you do enjoy Salt peanuts."
