Sonny Stitt's complete original 1957 quartet album Personal Appearance (Verve MGV8324). The great saxophonist is accompanied by pianist Bobby Timmons in their only existing collaboration ever. As a bonus, Poll Winners have included two quintet tracks (also with Sonny Stitt as the only horn) recorded at the Newport Jazz Festival the following year. Includes 12-page booklet

"In rating this five stars, I do not mean to say it is a 'perfect' record. Timmons plays well, but this is Stitt's album, and he is tremendous. Sonny is all over both his horns, communicating directly and deeply. If you consider yourself a jazz lover, you should own this set." - ***** Ira Gitler, DownBeat
