Sonny Rollins-Live In London 1965 V.2-JAZZ-NEW CD

Sonny Rollins --

Live In London Vol 2

A second set of tracks from Sonny Rollins' early 1965 stay at the Ronnie Scott Club in London -- one that features some wonderfully angular backing from the Stan Tracey Trio!

Tracey's got a nicely modern approach to the keys here -- one with hints of Monk and Herbie Nichols, and which provides Rollins for an unusual setting for the time -- especially considering his other live dates with piano-less groups, or his studio work for RCA during the period.

Tracks are long, with a real focus on Sonny's improvisation over the space of the tunes -- and titles include "Night & Day", "Flamingo", "Nutty", "A Foggy Day", and "Autumn Nocturne".
