SONNY STITT ANS BENNIE GREEN — My Main Man (1956-2004) RM | Serie Argo Cadet Jazz Collection 2004 – 6 | FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

The four and half stars this has from six people stems mainly from the fabulous interplay between the two nominal leaders. It's a sunny sounding affair throughout, with the Organ (Bobby, brother of Eddie Buster, who plays on two other Stitt albums) guitar and drums (Dorel Anderson) rhythm section never being allowed, or not choosing to slip in to the predictable chitlin' circuit groove of so many mid sixties sessions with this instrumentation. Guitarist Joe Diorio deserves commendation for lovely single note runs in intros and solos. Stitt switches between alto and tenor on this date, and as with the Coltrane and Getz versions, the excursion away from the tune in The Night Has A Thousand Eyes is so far as to make it unrecognisable without the track listing. A special mention also to engineer Ron Malo, at Ter Mar studio in Chicago for the clean, full sound to this. Mark Harrington
