Charlie Parker was a vicious jazz innovator.
As such, he had to have a uniquely functioning and insightful mind.
Dig: "Someday in the future, they'll be able to put your music in a can. Then, whenever they want to, they'll do it just like they were using a spoon to take out as much of you, or as little of you, as they need. After they have done whatever they want to do with you, with your sound, they put you back. Your future, my dear fellow, is in a can."
Charlie Parker to pianist Walter Davis Jr. in 1952.
