The first two tracks offer a blistering hard bop frenzy. I would pay a full album price just for "eternal triangle", track number two. Sonny Stitt and Rollins complement each other very well and the contrast from Dizzy really pushes this albulm along. This is probably my favourite album at the moment.
Sonny Side up is a great upbeat start to the album with some really lovely solos form all three and cool singing from dizzy.
The Eternal triangle is a composition by sonny Stitt and it's where the record really takes off. The two tenors start trying to outdo each other and it just builds and builds. This is my favourite track - truely breathtaking.
After Hours is a bluesy track with some nice piano.
I kno that you know finishes off nicely. A truely great album. Essential.

Album Notes
Full performer name: Dizzy Gillespie/Sonny Rollins/Sonny Stitt. Personnel: Dizzy Gillespie (vocals, trumpet); Sonny Rollins, Sonny Stitt (tenor saxophone); Ray Bryant (piano); Tommy Bryant (bass); Charlie Persip (drums). Producer: Norman Granz. Reissue producer: Michael Lang. Recorded at Nola Recording Studio, New York, New York on December 19, 1957. Includes liner notes by Loren Schoenberg and Nat Hentoff. Digitally remastered by Suha Gur (Polygram Studios). This is part of the Verve Master Edition series. Recorded a little over a week after the sessions which produced DUETS, SONNY SIDE UP brings tenor saxophonists Sonny Rollins and Sonny Stitt together on the same bandstand so to speak, with trumpeter Gillespie acting as the brass referee. The chemistry between these two saxophone giants is most keenly felt on Stitt's swift, jabbing composition "The Eternal Triangle," where a series of Parkerish changes and melodic ideas forms the basis for one fiery solo after another. Gillespie is in a particularly feisty mood, concluding his racehorse solo with some melodic fireworks before giving way to pianist Bryant and engaging drummer Charlie Persip in a rhythmic duel. The standard "I Know That You Know" is a given a similarly rigorous workout, enlivened by Stitt's stop time intro, and Gillespie's upper-register flurries. The opening ballad "On The Sunny Side Of The Street" is the kind of relaxed vehicle that whets a jazzman's appetite to blow, while Avery Parish's classic "After Hours" provides a wonderful opportunity for great blues players to really dig down deep and strut their stuff. Dizzy's solo here is a stunning example of his blues mastery.
