1966 studio album by Don Patterson with Sonny Stitt and Billy James
The Boss Men Don Patterson with saxophonist Sonny Stitt and drummer Billy James recorded in late 1965 and released on the Prestige label.[ 1]
Allmusic awarded the album 2½ stars stating "While this is a respectable straight-ahead jazz-with-organ session, it's also so similar to so many other Prestige dates from the mid-'60s -- not to mention the other dates which featured the exact same three players as this LP does -- that it challenges the reviewer to come up with anything new, fresh, and exciting to say about the music".[ 2]

"Diane" (Art Pepper ) – 5:40
"Someday My Prince Will Come " (Frank Churchill , Larry Morey ) – 8:15
