The record

Bud Powell and Max Roach behind Sonny Stitt's tenor, with Curly Russell on bass -- a quartet worth the price of a 78 by itself. Two sides only, Bud's Blues and Fine And Dandy, issued by Prestige as number 706 in 1950 on ten-inch shellac. Early Prestige, and a rhythm section that would flatter anyone standing in front of it.
