Description

Only the Blues is a deeply swinging, blues-driven album from Sonny Stitt, recorded in 1964 and released on Verve as part of the Jazz Giant series. Known for his powerful bebop technique, Stitt strips things back here, focusing on soulful phrasing and blues feeling rather than speed or harmonic complexity.

Joined by an all-star rhythm section including Oscar Peterson, Herb Ellis, and Ray Brown, with Roy Eldridge adding fiery trumpet lines, the album delivers relaxed yet authoritative performances. Tracks like "The String," "Cleveland Blues," "Blues for Bags," and "B.W. Blues" showcase Stitt's mastery of blues language and melodic invention.

A must-have for collectors of saxophone-led jazz and classic Verve recordings.
