Sonny Rollins 'Saxophone Colossus' (Prestige Bergenfield DG mono)

Thanks to Allan for this gem. Just arrived and sounds great !

I'd like to telegraph the same message to Allan from my little patch of ground -- the Joe Henderson 'In 'n Out' BN is as good as I'd hoped! Spun that little jobber several times this weekend!

Joe Albany: Portrait of an Artist (Elektra/Musician)

Interesting to hear Joe Albany speak in the interview at the end of the record. He calls Charlie Parker "a humble man." The interviewer interjects, "Humble in the face of music, maybe." Albany replies, "Well no. I saw him as being humble in the face of God."

This was the first original "deep groove" Blue Note I ever bought--I must have owned 40 different copies of it over the years and I still play it at least once a month!
