I want to see the entire video. Anyone know if it is out there somewhere?

Sonny and Cherry

Sonny Rollins and Don Cherry, a.k.a. Sonny and Cher.

Thanks for ruining my dumb one liner: 'What? No I got you Babe'.

I know. I know. You did us all a favor..............

This is me shutting up and watching the clip..............

Wow. Great stuff!

'60s Sonny is my favorite. He stretched on everything, taking bebop out and pulling everything apart like a curious kid. And what humor! The short solo on this is vintage '60s Sonny. I love East Broadway Rundown, Alfie, On Impulse, Our Man in Jazz. And this is right up there.

I always liked Cherry when he played straight ahead. Good ideas and coherence. Only drag is when they play together. No blend whatsoever. Not the strong suit of either of them. Sonny adjusted to Clifford well, though. The rhythm kicks ass on this. Smilin' Billy justs lights the whole thing up. The trading is killin'. Nice arco solo by Grimes.

Thanks for putting this up, man.

Sorry, Joel, I just couldn't resist.
