Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox album
Dizzy Digs Paris is a compilation album by trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie and his band featuring concert and studio performances recorded in Paris in 1953 and originally released on the French Disques Vogue and Blue Star labels.[1] Many of the tracks were first released as 78 rpm records but were later released on albums including Dizzy Over Paris (Roost) and Dizzy Gillespie and His Operatic Strings Orchestra (Fontana). The album also includes eight tracks recorded by Dizzy's rhythm section led by Wade Legge but without Gillespie that were originally released on a 10" album.[2]
Reception
The Allmusic review stated "As a whole, the two-CD set might not be a major entry in the Gillespie discography, but it's a good one. And it's certainly hard to imagine a more complete package of this 1953 Salle Pleyel concert, complemented as it is by studio material recorded by the same musicians at the same time and place".[3] Шаблон:Music ratings
