Blows The Blues (Verve Acoustic Sound Series) [LP] Though some critics foolishly tried to label Sonny Stitt as a Charlie Parker clone, he certainly kept them quiet on this 1959 date. Stitt's originals, like the slow and powerful "Morning After Blues," come off sounding fresh as executed by this quartet of Lou Levy, Mel Lewis and Leroy Vinnegar. Verve's Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.

Sonny Stitt witched between alto and tenor on the 1959 album The Hard Swing, but went to the tenor on this rewire of the Bob Haggard/Sonny Burke standard with Amos Trice (piano), George Morrow (bass), Lenny McBrowne (drums).

This Sonny Stitt rewire of the Charlie Parker standard is a thing of beauty...from the heartfelt 1964 homage to Bird by alto saxophonist Sonny Stitt - Stitt Plays Bird, and what a cast...

Dizzy, Stitt & Rollins face off in Sonny Side Up (1959 / RE 1985).

Japanese mono reissue on Verve. Fiery hard bop cut in 1957 with Ray Bryant, Tommy Bryant & Charlie Persip. Sax battles, Dizzy flair, pure joy.
