Sonny Rollins 'Our Man in Jazz' (French RCA Victor)

Sonny-Rollins-Our-Man-In-Jazz-550139.jpg

The first Sonny Rollins record I heard and one of the first jazz records I heard (late 1962 or early 1963). Took me a few listens to hear some of what was going on, since it was out of the realm of my listening at the time. It's since become a favorite.

Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Duke Ellington Songbook with Duke Ellington and His Orchestra (Verve/Speakers Corner) - LP 1

Listening to this, I wondered what might have resulted if Norman Granz had presented Billie in a similar setting.
