Gene Ammons - I Wanna Be Loved

[Kyo]

I just got the Stitt's Bits box and have been trying to complete the sessions that

are included only partially (because Sonny Stitt only played on a few of the tunes).

www.jazzdisco.org gives this session data:

Gene Ammons - Sonny Stitt Quartet

Tracks 2, 4, 5 and 6 are part of the Stitt's Bits box.

Track 3 is part of the CD The Gene Ammons Story: The 78 Era.

But where can I find track 1?

[Chuck Nessa]

It was available on the vinyl version of The 78 Era and is currently available on the Classics disc 1950-51.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

One reason I'm keeping my vinyl vopy of "The 78 era" - there are others on that LP I think that also haven't been reissued (though they may be on Classics).

Thanks, Chuck!

Just checked and that Classics CD contains two other tunes that

were left off the Chess compilation disc "Young Jug" as well. Since

I don't have that one yet, I might just go for this Classics release.

Oh, which tracks are they? Maybe they're on the "Early visions" twofer LP.

Yes, they are. But the LP doesn't have the personnel - or that personnel. What's the source of that info?
