Verve Records was founded in 1956 by Norman Granz, widely acknowledged as the most successful impresario in the history of jazz. The label was home to the world's largest jazz catalog which included some of the greatest jazz artists of all time. Verve also absorbed the catalogs of Granz's earlier labels, Clef, founded in 1946, Norgran, founded in 1953, and material previously licensed to Mercury. In addition to his extensive work in promoting jazz music, Granz was known for his anti-racist positions and for integrating jazz audiences in a time when integrating anything was pretty unheard of in a lot of places.

This is it, this was the place be at in the late ’50. The first Jazz club at ‘The City’ open up on December 15, 1949 at 1680 Broadway Avenue just north of West 52nd Street in Manhattan. John Coltrane record couple of live LP, Count Basie's Basie at Birdland. Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, Louie Bellson, Bud Powell, Johnny Smith, Stan Getz, Lester Young, and Ella Fitzgerald among other jazz celebrities. The clubs were frequented by; Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner, Gary Cooper, Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, Sugar Ray Robinson, Marlene Dietrich, Joe Louis, and other celebrities at that time. This is my version of the logo and concept of that first ‘Birdland’ club. The Club closed in 1965 and reopened in another location in 1986.

A great quote from jazz saxophone player Charlie parker. "If you don't live it, it won't come out your horn." Great gift for jazz lovers, musicians, horn players, orchestra horn players, brass instrument players, the horn section.
