Sonny Stitt - Sits in With Oscar Peterson Trio (1957) [Jazz][mp

Sonny Stitt - Sits in With Oscar Peterson Trio Year: 1957/59 Label: Verve (1991) Total time: 51:06 Quality: 320 kbps This CD combines together a complete session that Sonny Stitt (doubling on alto and tenor) did with the 1959 Oscar Peterson Trio (which includes the pianist/leader, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen) and three titles from 1957 with Peterson, Brown, guitarist Herb Ellis and drummer Stan Levey. The music very much has the feel of a jam session and, other than a themeless blues, all of the songs are veteran standards. Highlights of this fine effort include "I Can't Give You Anything but Love," "The Gypsy," "Scrapple from the Apple," "Easy Does It" and "I Remember You." Lots of cooking music. ~ Scott Yanow, AMG Personnel: Sonny Stitt (Alto and Tenor Saxophone) Oscar Peterson (Piano) Ray Brown (Double Bass) Ed Thigpen (Drums ) - 1-8 Herb Ellis (Guitar) - 9-11 Stan Levey (Drums) - 9-11 Sonny Stitt - Sits in With Oscar Peterson Trio Tracks: 01 I Can't Give You Anything But Love (Dorothy Fields/Jimmy McHugh) 4:04 02 Au Privave (Charlie Parker) 4:00 03 The Gypsy (Billy Reid) 3:27 04 I'll Remember April (Don Raye/Gene DePaul/Patricia Johnston) 4:43 05 Scrapple from the Apple (Charlie Parker) 4:21 06 Moten Swing (Bennie Moten) 7:09 07 Blues for Pres, Sweets, Ben & All the Other Funky Ones (Sonny Stitt) 6:05 08 Easy Does It (Trummy Young/Sy Oliver) 5:24 09 I Didn't Know What Time It Was (Lorenz Hart/Richard Rodgers) 3:27 10 I Remember You (Johnny Mercer/Victor Schertzinger) 3:46 11 I Know That You Know (Annie Caldwell/Vincent Youmans) 4:40

my dear Schon 55,
I thought I knew a little bit something about jazz, but since I discovered your CDs, I go from one wonder to the next. I always wait and monitor eagerly the delivery of your latest musical jewels.
Thanks. Patrick

I check for new Schon55 uploads frequently also. Schon55 is the best jazz uploader on TPB.
Thanks again!

This is a really swingin' album. Highly recommended. I am not very familiar with the works of Sonny Stitt (which is why I downloaded this). Sonny Stitt really wails on this swingin' album! The sound is very good also.
I have already seeded 2.75X more than I downloaded; and I will continue to seed this for a while.
