ghost of miles Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Some birthday love from the Night Lights archives: Crossing The Bridge: The Return Of Sonny Rollins Rollins '57: Sonny Rollins Takes The Lead Sonny Rollins: Live In London (with quote from Jsngry!) I've only seen Sonny in concert once--1999, at the Madame Walker Theater in Indianapolis, and it was amazing. A true jazz giant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Wow. I must say that when the CD set of the Village Gate recordings was released a couple years back, the music's place in the annals of favorites was confirmed big time. One of the greatest improvisers ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Suspenders matching neck strap, excellent, Sonny Rollins one of the best-kept secrets of jazz fashion, I kid you not, especially the Milestone albums, whatever the music, Sonny looked sharp, always. Casual, quirky, but always SHARP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
