Sonny Side Up (Verve Vault Series) LP VRS-00110 • Project MastercutThis 1957 date ranks as one of Dizzys best meetings of jazz royalty with titans Sonny Stitt and Sonny Rollins. Its rumored that Gillespie playfully pitted the two against each other ahead of the session which resulted in the bar being raised and the creation of an iconic album. Ray Bryant (piano), Tommy Bryant (bass), and Charlie Persip (drums) join Gillespie, Stitt and Rollins on four tracks showcasing two different approaches to tenor saxophone.
