Postwar conditions forced early bebop musicians to record extremely short solos, leaving a misleading record of their music. However, these musicians' concise playing makes the recordings superb artistic works instead of just copying their live solos. Also, the concise recordings resulted those artists playing more compact solos even when performing live. The next generation of musicians lacked this concision.

Postwar conditions had at least one positive effect for bebop musicians.

Sometimes a feature of music can have simultaneous negative and positive effects.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know from the stimulus how the music historian would value representations of live solos. It’s possible that both versions are valuable.

This answer is strongly supported. The music historian praises the conciseness of bebop music, which resulted from postwar recording conditions.

This answer is unsupported. First, the historian is talking about short solos, not necessarily short recordings overall. Second, to say that short recordings are “always” superior is just too strong.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know anything about the quality of the music of the following generation. We only know that this generation’s music lacks concision

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know from the stimulus whether difficult recording conditions are the only reason for recording short solos.
