Editor's info:
The complete original album 'Sonny Stitt Sits in with the Oscar Peterson Trio' (originally on Verve), the last of the very few preserved collaborations between the two leaders. It was recorded in a studio in Paris, during a JATP European tour.

As a bonus, the three quintet songs (with Herb Ellis on guitar) recorded by the saxophonist and pianist in the studio in 1957, are added, and as a further bonus, a complete live performance featuring them with Roy Eldridge on trumpet, which was recorded at the 1957 Newport Jazz Festival.

Stitt was still playing tenor on some tracks here - a choice he had made to avoid the frequent comparisons with his idol, Charlie Parker. He returned mainly to alto in subsequent decades.

Personnel : Sonny Stitt, alto & tenor sax, Oscar Peterson, piano, on all tracks, plus : Ray Brown, bass, Ed Thigpen, drums - Paris, France, May 18, 1959. Herb Ellis (g), Ray Brown (b), Stan Levey (d) - Hollywood, October 11, 1957. Roy Eldridge (tp), Herb Ellis (g), Ray Brown (b), Jo Jones (d) - Newport Jazz Festival, Newport, July 7, 1957.
