Hardbopjazz

Sonny wasn't too happy for the fans that night. The show was supposed to begin at 8 PM but didn't start to 8:40. This was due to Carnegie Hall only having one ticket window open for the people with "Will Call" tickets. The first set was with the trio, Rollins, Haynes and McBride. When the set finished, the seats in front and next to me were still empty. People were upset, and rightfully so. Sonny apologized to his fans the following day, but it wasn't his doing. Carnegie Hall did issue a refund for anyone that didn't get in for the first set. This ordeal did impact Sonny's playing for both sets. This was why only one track was released. Sonny wasn't happy with his playing. The goal was to release the entire concert from 2007 along with the 1957 concert which has. I want to hear that 1957 concert. Hopefully one day. I believe Roy Haynes was on drums for the 1957 Carnegie Hall concert.

I was there for the concert at Carnegie Hall in 2007.

I wish I could take photos like this one.

This one I know was done. I have this record and posted this as a result of now.
