Sonny Rollins

Heard an interview with him a about a year ago and he said he still practices hours a day. Still loves to play and said he is still trying new things and perfecting old ones. Quite admirable for a man of his stature to still be trying to improve. It's therefore no surprise he still smokes live. Wish I could have seen it.

Does anyone have list of where he will be playing?

Jsman: go to Sonny Rollins.com...under itinerary.

Someone above wrote that "He [Rollins} and Ornette Coleman are pretty much the last of the jazz giants who walk the earth" ... no point in arguing against this sort of statement, but people like Donny McCaslin and Chris Potter are blowing notes that are nothing short of amazing ... huge talents by anyone's standards
