From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bird Gets the Worm is a composition by alto saxophonist Charlie "Bird" Parker. He only did one recording of it, which was at 340 Beats per minute, making one of his fastest and most memorable recordings.[citation needed]

This composition appears on Cool Bird, a 1947 recording featuring Bird accompanied by Miles Davis (trumpet), Duke Jordan (piano), Tommy Potter (bass) and Max Roach all taking turns to do a short solo.
