Well summed up Barry. The only thing this is good for is seeing how far one can launch it across the garden.
I'm afraid I must disagree about your inoffensive comment, this is very offensive, offensive utter shite.
The horror made a fortune from this junk too!
Sonny Rollins : The Bridge. RCA records 1962
Following his famous 3 year sabbatical from recording whilst at his peak..
In 1959, feeling pressured by the unexpected swiftness of his rise to fame, Rollins took a three-year hiatus to focus on perfecting his craft. A resident of the Lower East Side of Manhattan with no private space to practice, he took his saxophone up to the Williamsburg Bridge to practice alone: "I would be up there 15 or 16 hours at a time spring, summer, fall and winter".
Returns with his tour de force!

Great recommendation Andy. And thanks for adding the little background write-up - very insightful. We've got quite a number of Rollins' recordings, but not that one. Looking forward to getting to know it.
Cheers,

We've been putting this one on more frequently in recent weeks:

Marian McPartland, In My Life. Wonderful album. I can't recall at the moment who the back-up musicians were, but they really shine - some excellent playing, all 'round.
Nice Buns !:eek:
