joe pass said that parker was his greatest influence. why should i link you anything? so your little brain can get a chance to malign it? you're talking about one of the most well respected musicians who has ever lived you mongoloid.  and it's all besides the point. you said the concern was not about melody. that's just factually incorrect. even if you think parker was bad at writing melodies, that's still different from saying he wasn't trying.  fucking idiocracy. i'm going to bed
