Double vinyl LP pressing. On this impulse! Release, Charlie Parker's music is uniquely re-imagined by living legends of the modern jazz scene. Produced by Larry Klein, and including artists like Ben Monder, Madeleine Peyroux, Melody Gardot, and Gregory Porter, this 'musical play' follows the narrative arc of Bird's life. This release aims to sound "like something that outlines the shape of what Bird might be doing in this time, were he still alive and playing these songs".

Within the perimeter of Britain's top-secret chemical and biological research establishment at Porton Down in Wiltshire and other international centres are some of the world's best kept secrets, to which John Parker has gained access. From thousands of documents and many first-hand accounts, he has amassed a wealth of detail from the controversial arena of gas and germ warfare.Parker portrays a relentless international quest, often terrifying and brutal, for the most effective chemical and biological weapons and defence agents. The 'live' trials of biological agents in the London Underground and heavily populated areas of America. The dark humour in his account of 29 women from Unilever factories recruited to put anthrax spores into five million cattle cakes to be dropped over Germany. The graphic testimony from recent human volunteers used in Porton experiments. The on-going stomach-churning experiments on many thousands of animals.This truly appalling account is capped, ultimately, with Britain and the United States supplying chemicals and anthrax to Saddam Hussein for an armoury that he eventually turned against their own troops. And Parker investigates how the cocktail of chemicals given to American and British soldiers to protect them from Hussein's weapons is leading thousands of soldiers, their wives and children to the courts to claim compensation for the dreadful consequences of the Gulf War.1996 marks the anniversary of eight decades of incredible activity at Porton Down, nurtured by the military, protected by politicians and jealously guarded by the intelligence community. It is at the heart of the world's chemical and biological warfare business, defiantly proud of its global reputation for excellence. A deadly international industry is exposed at last in all its horror in The Killing Factory.
