Bluerein Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Hello all, did anyone pick this new 3 CD set up already? I'm interested in the sound on this one (new remasterings in 24 bit I guess). Also I can't find 2 tracks which should have been on there: When I dream of you and A Lover is Blue (both on the Ammons 78's era cd and the Ammons all star Sessions with Stitt cd).

Bluerein Posted August 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Thanks for the update but what about these 2 Tracks I've mentioned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) Thanks for the update but what about these 2 Tracks I've mentioned? Best to get them on the other CD's mentioned. Edited August 30, 2006 by felser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Thanks for the update but what about these 2 Tracks I've mentioned? According to my old Prestige disco Stitt didn't play on them and they were released under Ammons' name. I have the LP version of the Ammons 78 era and the credits there confirm this.

Interesting, as the credits on the All-Star Sessions CD name Stitt as the tenor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Stitt played tenor with the same rhythm section on the two-part "Stringin' the Jug", recorded at the same session, but they never were released in one package. Ammons and Stitt had a band together at the time and often recorded tracks for release under either name at the same session. Sometimes one of them played baritone in the section behind the other.

Bluerein Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 I'll LISTEN to it later to see if Stitt's on those 2. I assumed this was the fact since they weren't included on the Stitt set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Schlouch Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Hi folks, I received my copy last month. A really great work especially for the January 26, 1950 session with Bud Powell which is at last complete for the very first time. Both takes of Strike up the band are present. When I dream of you and A Lover is Blue are not included in the box set because Sonny Stitt is not present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted October 27, 2006 Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 Duh - Universal has scheduled a European release date of December 30 - no Stitt for Xmas!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 27, 2006 Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 Duh - Universal has scheduled a European release date of December 30 - no Stitt for Xmas!!! Oh well, barely getting into the Mosaic Roosts at present. I think I'll cancel Christmas and listen to records instead! MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
