Sonny Rollins


Saw Sonny Rollins last night in Cerritos, Ca. WOW! The man still can bring it! Even got my lp copy of Way Out West signed by him, how cool is that. If he comes to your town, run don't walk to get tickets!

Amazing! I'm a big Rollins fan. I had my doubts that being an older dude now he could still blow to the standard of his heyday. Glad to hear your enthusiasm for his show. If he comes around which is doubtful, I'd love to hear him.
I'm jealous, bet it was a wonderful experience.

I am a big fan of Jazz and he and Miles are among the best of the best.
I'll second the rave on Sonny Rollins live. Saw him last September and he played to the standard that many have claimed for him: the world's greatest living improviser. He and Ornette Coleman are pretty much the last of the jazz giants who walk the earth---both are 78---so I'd say take a plane if you have to. That goes for Ornette, too, who I saw in February. Inspirational, and better than ANY hifi experience.
