Does Lord list only a single Birdland title under Sonny Sitt?
Jepsen lists 9001 & 9002 (Dec 49 & Jan 50 sessions), with 4 Stitt titles !
Or did we loose several issues in the long way of copying from Jepsen?
Pres. they are in the Prestige dg but I do not have it at hand.

And where are the reverses of 6002 & 6003 ?
Under Parker & Davis, or omitted as uninteresting "blues"(?) items?

Last Birdland known to me is 6006.
