Here is what people are saying about the Gene Ammons with Sonny Stitt - Boss Tenors: Straight Ahead from Chicago 1961

"Brother Jug and Sonny Stitt"	2009-01-26
- Reviewed By User: A2BVYOFEXLM7F2
The quintessential Gene Ammons, blowin' Sonny away with his huge, fat, warm reedy sound, soulful phrasing and simple melodic ideas. Autumn Leaves is a great cut and probably my favorite recording of this tune, and i have heard many. Blues Up and Down is hip. Buster WIlliams is a young man here and sounds like a different player than he is nowadays. I prefer this older sound. If you like the key of Bb you will dig this record. every tune is in it. Jug can say more with one note than most cats say with 10 choruses. Young players should dig more of him. Sonny Stitt is cool here. Enough said peace

"Another winner from this duo..."	2007-08-23

A bit short at 37 minutes compared to many CD compilations which add bonus tracks, still the quality of the music here is hard to match anywhere. This is uniformly lively, and "Autumn Leaves" is hardly recognizable when compared to jazz treatments which take it slower. I still like their mellower collaboration, "We'll be Together Again" even better, but not by much. While Sonny Stitt has had a longer career than Gene Ammons, I think the tracks laid down by the two together are likely to be superior to anything either did alone. Good jazz, good driving music, keeps you awake, makes you smile...what else do you need?

"a toe tapping ride"	2007-04-30

Early in 1950, Gene Ammons and Sonny Stitt co-led a two tenor septet together and frequently interlocked horns during live jazz settings. It is befitting that the two tenors came together in Chicago then for this August 1961 date to play, this time in a quintet formation. The rhythm section here is a solid one, featuring John Houston on piano, Buster Williams on bass and George Brown on drums. "There Is No Greater Love" is an up-tempo ballad featuring some magnificent interactions between Ammons and Simmons in 8 bar increments. "The One Before This" is a romping melody with Sonny and Gene blowing out choruses in turn. Originally produced by Creed Taylor for Verve, this album was digitally remastered by Tom Ruff at PolyGram Studios. The sound quality and caliber of musicianship are excellent on this release, so I recommend this one without hesitation to the jazz collector in you. Personnel: Gene Ammons (tenor sax) Sonny Stitt (tenor and alto sax) John Houston (piano) Buster Williams (bass) George Brown (drums)

I can't add much to what the other reviewers have said-- oh yeah, the chemistry is terrific, Sonny and Gene are the REAL DEAL my brothers and sisters-- these cats can PLAY.

"Ammons & Stitt: Their best CD together"	2006-09-14
- Reviewed By mirobonbooks
Gene Ammons and Sonny Stitt first recorded together back in 1950; their dueling tenor sounds opened lots of eyes and the Boss Tenors seemed totally suited to each other's extroverted style of playing jazz. In the early 1960s they made a few albums together, and this is one of them. It's not surprising they'd kick things off with BLUES UP AND DOWN, which dates back to their first recording session together - a stomping up-tempo a-a-a blues that pits each man's prowess off the other's. They begin to trade choruses right from the get-go, and the 8-minute performance is one of their best. But what's kind of interesting about this album is that Sonny and Gene don't actually do battle with each other track after track; there's a lot of lyricism and shared moments here. Sonny is at his pacifist best on the catchy tune THE ONE BEFORE THIS where his playing is smooth and creamy. The blues COUNTER CLOCKWISE, which goes into double-time in the middle of each man's solo, again features the two in a complimentary fashion rather than pugilistically. The playing is very relaxed after the opening romper, especially on AUTUMN LEAVES and THERE IS NO GREATER LOVE. Gene and Sonny would cut another album together for Verve the following year (1962), which is also good, but this CD is exceptionally good. It's one of their best together.

"smokin'!"	2006-05-11
- Reviewed By fezic16
Oh what an album. I'd give it 10 stars if I could. Sonny Stitt is on your left speaker and Gene Ammons is on your right. It's good to know that because these two guys go at it lick for lick, and it's up to you to choose your favorite. I'm goin' with Ammons on this blowing session! "Blues up and Down" is the most aggresive track of the album. It is explosive in every sence of the word. The more I hear it the better it is, and I've been hearing it for quite some time now. Every person that has hung out at my house and heard this album has either bought it right away, or has begged me to burn them a copy. As smokin' as this album is, it has a romantic side to it, especially on tracks like "There is no Greater Love" and "Autumn Leaves". Gene Ammons has a thicker and bluesier sound, and when he really gets into a solo you can actually hear him moan in between short breaks. Buy it and play it loud, you wont be disappointed.
