What's Your Favorite Rollins album?

Either today, or Wednesday, is Sonny's 74th birthday, and what better way to mark the event than to play some of his music? The question is, which album(s) to play? Plus 4? Sax Colossus? The Bridge? Tenor Madness? Freedom Suite? Which is your fav?

Ha ha ha.... Just goes to show...

I saw this and thought of HENRY Rollins, not Sonny : )

Personally, i thought his work with Black Flag was better than any of the Rollins band stuff : ) Sean

I always thought Scottie Pippen looked alot like a very tall Sonny.

Colossus is tough to beat, but I also like Volume Two, which features a guest spot by Thelonius Monk. Also fun is Dizzy's Sonny Side Up, with Rollins and Stitt.
