Tracks list

This LP features altoist Sonny Stitt accompanied by a nonet playing arrangements
by either Tadd Dameron or Jimmy Mundy. The charts give this Stitt album more
variety than usual, and the superior material (which includes On a Misty Night,
Poinciana and Stitts Hey Pam) challenges the saxophonist to play at his best;
trumpeter Blue Mitchell also has a couple of spots.
Sonny Stitt recorded hundreds of throwaway sessions, but this is one of his rare
well planned efforts on a major label with arrangements split between Tadd
Dameron and Jimmy Mundy.
Stitt is at the top of his game, with his solos, dare I say, on a par with
Charlie Parker.
