Gene Ammons recorded many albums for Prestige but, if this CD is a good start for listeners unfamiliar with his playing. A reissue of two LPs (Up Tight and Boss Soul) recorded during the same two-day period, these performances find Ammons backed by a pair of four-piece rhythm sections (with either Walter Bishop or Patti Bown on piano and Ray Barretto's congas a major asset) and taking the lion's share of the solo space.

Sometimes being prolific works against a musician. Sonny clearly felt at ease inside a recording studio, so much so that the listening audience may mistake his recordings as being unexceptional. Yet careful listening tells us that he was not merely a slavish imitator of Charlie "yardbird" Parker. Sonny Stitt was consistently excellent on his own terms from date to date during the period 1959-1962. Throughout these eight sessions Sonny's presence is dynamic and original, whether he's playing alto or tenor sax. In this collection, I currently find myself favoring Sonny's collaborations with Gene Ammons ("Boss Tenors" & "Boss Tenors In Orbit"), particularly "Autumn Leaves" and "Blues Up and Down" (Stitt's most famous original). He was especially discerning in his selection of keyboardists such as Jimmy Jones, Jack McDuff and Don Patterson. My only regret with this collection is the lack of "bonus tracks". ~ review by Jeffrey Tedford

The ideal gift for a music lover is for sure a nice compilation. Rock & Folk released this year a compilation of the best rock songs of the 50s and 60s. A person who is a fan of rock, it is very easily. A person who still listens to CDs in his car is easy to find too. A person who prefers to have a beautiful object rather than an iTunes prepaid card, there is a shovel.
Here is a gift that can please a person who mixes these three aspects. Indeed, Rock & Folk releases its traditional compilation of end of year and looks this year on the origins of rock.
