Artist:Sonny Stitt & Paul Gonsalves
Song:Salt And Pepper
Album:The House That Trane Built:The Impulse Records Story
Great song by two great tenor sax players. Sonny Stitt was definitely a disciple of Charlie Parker but carved out his own following. Paul Gonsalves is probably best known for his performance with Duke Ellington at the 1956 Newport Jazz Festival but he played with plenty of other bands too. This song was recorded in 1963. The House That Trane Built is a newly released 4CD box set chronicling the history of Impulse Records. There's also a single CD version available and single CD comps of individual artists. I guess it's a good introduction for those unfamiliar with Impulse but most jazz fans will have a lot of this music already.
