There is Only One Saxophone Colossus

Duke of Iron (Rollins). Sonny Rollins, tenor saxophone, Clifton Anderson, trombone; Bob Cranshaw, bass; Harold Sumney, drums; Victor Sen Yeng, percussion, Stephen Scott, piano.

Sonny Rollins will go down in history as not only the single most enduring tenor saxophonist of the bebop and hard bop era, but also as one of the greatest contemporary jazz saxophonists of them all. His fluid and harmonically innovative ideas, effortless manner, and easily identifiable and accessible sound have influenced generations of performers, but have also fueled the notion that mainstream jazz music can be widely enjoyed, recognized, and proliferated.

Highly recommended: Saxophone Colossus – The Life and Music of Sonny Rollins by Aiden Levy. https://amzn.to/3CDQ5JK
