Very nice album, the remastering on the VME is superb. Favorite track is John Brown's Body, probably has more to do with the title than anything, I used to live right across the street from the John Brown Memorial when I was a kid (Harpers Ferry, WV).

Yes, I think "John Brown's Body" is the best track - surprisingly, as I wouldn't have expected it to be promising material!

My favourite Ammons/Stitt is "Soul summit". This is/was on a Prestige twofer (issued as two volumes). Not all Ammons/Stitt; that was vol 1 - some Ammons/McDuff; some Ammons/Etta Jones; a couple Ammons/big band; one just McDuff.

But "Soul summit" vol 1 was, I think, the best album they made together.

Thanks for the recommendation, MG. I must search round for that.
