At age 83, the great Sonny Rollins keeps going on and here’s his new major achievement. All of the magic thatmade him a jazz giant are present on this new release, which compiles top moments from five different concerts recorded around the world (in Japan, France and St. Louis) from 2001 to 2012.
As usual, the backing musicians always include his nephew Clifton Anderson on trombone, and some tracks also feature bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummers Victor Lewis and Steve Jordan.
But the focus on these selected performances is always on Rollins himself, who displays his wonderful sound, his improvising magic, and his musical sense of humor (as during the multiple quotes on “Solo Sonny”, Sonny's unaccompanied tenor sax track) all throughout this very welcome album.
