The day may come when the well runs dry, but that day is not upon us. The fourth installment of Sonny Rollins’ Road Shows series has arrived, bringing more beauties from the archives to light while bearing out that the genius of the Saxophone Colossus is best demonstrated on the stage.

Mostly taken from performances around Europe, he sounds willful, peremptory, restless and unique, proving that he can’t really be judged by any standards
but his own, and he’s never satisfied. Despite encompassing some 33 years, with performances cherry picked from 1979 to 2012, the recordings show coherence and solidity. Always a favorite of the Jazz Messengers team!
