Note:

These six items have usually been dated October 23, 1950, but the correct date is apparently February 11, 1951.
Parker, booked with his Strings ar Johnny Brown's Club in Pittsburgh, has the night off and flies in to play a dance at the Pershing
Ballroom.
The items were originally issued by Savoy on LP (SJL 1132), and reissued in 1960 (MG-12152) with some clumsy edits: on "There's a
Small Hotel" the tenor solo is repeated; on "These Foolish Things," Parker's solo is repeated; on "Keen and Peachy," the closing chorus
is spliced in at the beginning. Other solos appear to have been edited out. On Definitive these titles appear without the edits.

Parker plays relatively little on these numbers, and sounds quite uninspired.
