5 out of 5 stars Amazing.......2005-07-02

This is an amazing session. Recorded in 1959 in Paris. Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown, and Ed Thigpen with Sonny Stitt - talk about a line up...

5 out of 5 stars Swallow hard and purchase.......2004-04-02

As college students we considered the appearance of this album a major event because, unlike so many of his recordings, Sonny was matched by a rhythm section that he could not merely steamroller over. Oscar, Ray and Ed turn up the burners a notch, not simply supporting but complementing Sonny's sense of melody and swing, and he responds with slightly more animated and extended though no less perfect solos. I memorized every note of his opening statement on "I Can't Give You Anything But Love" and transcribed it to piano. Twenty years later I got him to play "The Gipsy" for me in a practically deserted Greenwich Village club. Shame on Verve for allowing this one to go out of print. Nevertheless, this Japanese knock-off is worth at least 10 times the price of some low-priced, boot-legged, poorly recorded Stitt I'm seeing offered elsewhere on Amazon.
