Исполнитель: Sonny Stitt Название альбома: Don't Call Me Bird Год выпуска: 1959 Формат файлов: mp3, 320 kbps Размер архива: 69.2 МБ Скачать с: narod.ru Ten years before he made these recordings, during a brief 1959 sojourn in Los Angeles, Sonny Stitt, already weighed down by constant comparison with Charlie “Bird” Parker, turned partly away from alto, which he loved, to the tenor saxophone. And, though from then on he customarily used both instruments, the alto remained his prime horn of choice, as is abundantly clear here. Cushioned by a solidly swinging West Coast rhythm section led by the sensitive piano of Lou Levy, he is a powerful, melodic, superlatively thoughtful and intense performer. This is Stitt at the top of his form, playing with slashing authority and a piledriver beat.
