stylusofheld I just love "The Song Is You." It features double-time sections with great cymbal and piano work. The instruments sound as if they come from different locations, which is great to listen to. Some early stereo albums do not do that, or do it clumsily by panning players hard right or hard left. And Sonny really rips along. He was amazing, and I'm only just beginning to hear a lot of his recordings. Favorite track: The Song Is You.

Sonny Rollins Los Angeles, California

Sonny Rollins is a saxophone colossus. The revered tenor saxophonist first received that appellation via the name of his 1956 album of that title.
