Listed as a national historic landmark, this location is where Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie first played for each other. Together they created a new genre of music known as Be Bop. The music filled the ears of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Adam Clayton and Amiri Baraka as they were planning boycotts and protest against police brutality. The sound ushered in the Civil Rights Movement.

5.00Really enjoyed a personal guided tour with Erik for the Jazz & BeBop history tour! He was patient and friendly with my questions, and very knowledgeable about the history of the area and provided many details to showcase the historical beauty of the 18th & Vine district. Even having to navigate around construction and limited access to some areas, I found the tour to be informative, interesting, and fun to hear about such a special area of the country.
Informative, interesting, and friendly.

5.00Erik has an encyclopedic knowledge of the history, places and people that have their roots in the 18th and Vine neighborhood. He weaves all of them into stories of the neighborhood and its importance to Kansas City's history. These stories show how vital this neighborhood was and is to not only the evolution of Jazz but also the impact this neighborhood has had on the city and the nation. It is a thoroughly entertaining tour and educational at the same time. Highly recommend!
