The Charlie
Parker Reboppers record Now's The Time, for Savoy Records at
WOR Studios, Broadway, New York City, USA. The track's main melody
will later be recycled more successfully by Paul Williams under the title The
Hucklebuck, also for Savoy Records. It should be noted, however, that Williams didn't steal it from Parker. He stole it
from D Natural
Blues, a clearly Parker-influenced song he'd heard played live
by Lucky
Millinder And His Band, who later recorded it for RCA
Records.
